The crocheted leather that was featured heavily in the Issever Bahri presentation was inspired “by the wicker chairs in our respective family houses in Turkey,” said Derya Issever. She and co-designer Cimen Bachri used the material to create a matching sleeveless top and skirt in chocolate brown with thick edges, as well as panelling to add dimension to a black leather dress and down the front of some black leather cigarette pants. Cotton scarves, tightly wound, topped off half of the 14 looks. The Berlin design duo further demonstrated a knack for mannish tailoring with an ice-blue linen suit and oversize baseball jackets.
