Overdrive: Charles & Keith explore the seasonal silhouette of the modern woman

Contemporary and chic, the iconic brand celebrates smooth lines and sharp styles for AW18.

Founded by fashion entrepreneurs Charles and Keith Wong back in 1996, the label’s mission was to create inspiring fashion to represent the most desirable accessories. Notably identifying the potential of footwear designs catered for Eastern women, CHARLES & KEITH have centred their vision around feminine power, creating forward thinking and empowered designs. Experimenting with the boundaries of colours and proportions, the brand has created a fully-fledged line of footwear, bags, eyewear, accessories, and costume jewellery to inspire creativity and playfulness for everyday fashion.

For Autumn Winter 2018, CHARLES & KEITH continue to form designs with thought and meaning: celebrating the changing silhouette of womenswear, their accessories are as wearable as they are luxurious. Made for the modern woman, the brand has evolved to a smoothly relevant place, with women’s wants at the forefront always. Inspired by the illuminated city skylines, creative director Veronika Safrankova and stylist Richard Sloane have expressed their perception of the latest collection, working with photographer Onin Lorente to capture their vision. Shooting exclusively for HUNGER, we delve deep into the imaginations of the collection, and find out who the modern woman is to CHARLES & KEITH for this season…
