their structural, outlandish show

Fashion Fringe prize, is showing on schedule for the first time this year. The
lavish collection was inspired, they say, by Russian peasants, tzars - and
insects
.Striking: The design pair say the FYODOR GOLAN woman is
'expressive, emotional and sexual'
Green skin, crazy hair and see-through dresses... Yes, it's London Fashion Week again
Design duo FYODOR GOLAN opened fashion week with a bang as
they showed an outlandish collection modelled by models with green glittery
skin, tribal-style piercings and hair slicked into intricate designs.
The pair, Israeli-born Golan Frydman and Latvian Fyodor
Podgorny, made waves with their
innovative catwalk show at London Fashion Week, which they said was
inspired by 'Russian peasants, tzars and insects'.
The young duo are firmly on their way up, after last year
having been awarded the Fashion Fringe prize, judged by Claudia Schiffer and
Roland Mouret among others.
At the time, their fledgling label had been going just one
year. Now, with two years' experience under their belts, the collection - their
first shown on-schedule at the event - looks yet more accomplished.
Golan studied at the Instituto Marangoni in London while
Fyodor studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, before moving to
London where they both met.
Between them, the two, who launched their label in 2010,
have a wealth of experience to pour into their own brand, having worked with
Richard Nicoll, Alexander McQueen, Raf Simons and Issey Miyake.
.Modern day tzarinas: Inspired by the juxtaposition between
Russian royalty and peasants, the collection featured luxury detailing, sharp
tailoring and sculptural shapes, with the traditional heavy jewellery of
Russian's peasant population
