When Danish born London based designer
Malene Oddershede Bach worked for Preen by Thornton
Bregazzi, this gave her enough experience behind her belt as she launched
her own label. Her ready-to-wear label was a huge success and so
instilled the inevitable innate desire to also launch accessories
featuring opticals and bags. Exquisite, elegant and embellished with
radiating hues of classiness, these beautifully made pieces and this
latest collection identifies Malene as a true fashion visionary.
Marlene’s creations consist of
vibrant eclectic prints with structured tailoring ranging from relaxed
jersey staples to sensual silk dresses. She has progressed professionally and
was awarded as ‘Ones to Watch’, officially by the Vauxhall Fashion Scout
and, as a result, increasingly by expert fashion
sources around the world.
She has
certainly acquired a loyal fan base as well as being featured in
various fashion publications: Vogue, ELLE, Marie Claire, Grazia to name
but a few. Whilst honing her skills at Preen, this designer is certainly
a talent in her own right as her collection beautifully captures the feel
of modern prints with a sense of refinement, luxurious materials and
tailored structures.

Oddershede Bach's innovative, much-awaited A/W'14 collection embraced a series
of floor-length dresses, printed jumpsuits, statement peg trousers,
striking coats, tailored suits, and tea dresses, occasionally accompanied by
her range of accessories.
At a first glimpse, this description
may lack a sense of excitement but in actual fact, the originality and
beauty of the collection lies in the detail. Marlene’s usage of an unusual mix
of style and diverse materials in each piece enraptured the collection
with a sublime oddity and innovative creativity to it.
The attention on form is indeed a
prominent acuity. Oddershede Bach has focused on particularly on form
what with her dresses sculpting and adorning the models’ bodies through petal
shaped cut-out detailing around the neck as well as sharp shapes detailing the
shoulders and waistline. Her useage of textures are inarguably a whim of her
imaginative, artistic mind as it scopes from lightweight cotton to silk-like
fabrics, heavier leathers to soft wool, as well as thicker materials used to
make some of the heavily textured peg trousers and dresses.
Malene
Bach’s A/W’14 collection follows the parallels her recent collections with her
ideology flowing throughout her pieces of structured layering, love of leather,
and experimentation with different fabrics and textures. Yet this is a parallel
of contrast also, as the collection is a breath of fresh air from a fashion
genius.
