John Mangru With his hyper-feminine designs, which bring silhouette and form to the fore, stylist John Mangru National College of Art and Design’s graduate class of 2020 is determined to rewrite the codes of modern dressing. Just take a look at the emerging designer’s Instagram account, where you’ll find a smorgasbord of visual goodies most notable are Mangru’s recognisable handmade corsets in a fizzy colour palette of fire-engine red, zingy neon green and candyfloss pink.
“I have always been obsessed with undergarments being worn on the outside,” the young designer says of his passion for classic silhouettes. “I love the way they’re tight to the body and I love creating shapes that may not be there normally. On a deeper level, I also love the idea that the corset was always seen as a symbol of oppression and I wanted to take it out of its original context by mixing new techniques and fabrics.”
