Ong-Oaj Pairam SS15 Collection | London Fashion Week

We have been having a ball at London Fashion Week. A highlight was Ong-Oaj Pairam’s show. Ong-Oaj Pairam’s third season showcasing during Fashion Week was another triumph. After being named as ‘one to watch’ by the Times last week, the SS15 collection did not disappoint. By combining pastels, prints and metallics, Ong-Oaj Pairam’s latest collection is inspired by the designers fragmented memories of growing up alongside his families noodle factory in Nakhon Ratichasima, Thailand. We loved it.

Spotlight on Ong-Oaj Pairam AW14

Cobalt Frock

Cobalt Frock

Ong-Oaj Pairam was back at Fashion Scout this year to showcase his third collection. This included both Womenswear and Menswear and he took his inspirations from super-villians.

 

Ong-Oaj Pairam originally from Thailand studied Fashion Design at Brighton University

Main inspiration for the collection; Ursula from The Little Mermaid and The dark artistry of Charley Harper

Main Colours: Deep purples and Forest Greens interspersed with Neon Orange, Yellows and Cobalt Blue

Fabrics used: Ong prefers British Textiles and a heavy feature was PVC, Hand Embroidery and flowing Silk Gowns

 

This has been my favourite collection at Fashion Week so far, the collection was beautiful and the staple dark colours of grey and black with flashes of block colour and neons, cobalt blue appear to be a huge trend for AW14. Pairam’s use of neon was inspired by warning colours of exotic animals and the use of PVC and detailing on the more tailored pieces seem to be evocative of his inspiration Charley Harper. Some stunning flowing gowns mixed with tailored twin sets and the highlight of the show was the Neon Orange Mens Edge to Edge jacket.

ONG-OAJ PAIRAM LAUNCHES NEW AW14 COLLECTION FOLLOWING A SUCESSFUL CATWALK SHOW

British-Thai designer Ong-Oaj Pairam showcased his third season yesterday during a successful runway show at Fashion Scout, Freemasons Hall. The show explored a fascination with danger, dreaming up an army of seductive super villains inspired by the designer’s all-time favourite anti-hero Ursula from the Little Mermaid and was attended by Binky, Louise and Mark from Made In Chelsea.

Ong-Oaj uses the finest British textiles and original prints, many pieces accented with hours of hand embroidery. The colour pallet reflects the warning markings of dangerous animals, dark sultry dresses are accented with toxic bright outwear and metallic snakeskin accessories. Ong-Oaj developed his prints drawing on inspiration from the darker works of American modernist artist Charlie Harper, and through an exploration of toxic animals and plants.
