Zips are definitely going to play a key part in design for Autumn/Winter '10. Although perhaps not as you might think.
Instead of being functional, decoration and adornment are now their sole purpose, or for this season at least!
Here are just a few examples of these designs in use.
David Koma taking this idea to the extreme. Structured pieces are enhanced by the adornment.
Underwear designer Marlies Dekkers has used zip edging on this bra for decoration. Her pieces are designed to incorporate underwear with outerwear.
Bodyamr use gold zipping to add an accent colour to this structured panelled little black dress.
Also featured in the Bodyamr collection was this printed dress.

The illusion of having the drape printed instead of the fabric manipulated is something that we were expecting to see a trend for last season but it looks like we were ahead of the game. Perhaps it will show it's face now then? Keep your eyes peeled!
