Enveloping was on Gary Graham
s mind on more ways than one. At his presentation tonight, he magically draped and folded the body in chiffon, georgette and silk jersey printed with a design inspired by an 18th century handkerchief. "The idea was to use something romantic in an unexpected way," he said of one look, a fluid soft dress with a matching bodysuit underneath. As for the other enveloping, that would be the scent of smoky incense that hung in the air. "It
s frankinscense," Graham says. "I also burn it in the studio. I
ve spent ages trying to find a really good one." And has he? "Yeah, I just did!" he says, laughing. "It came from Whole Foods."
