255 Red is all about passion, lust, craving, heat, desire – and the design team for 255 knew that and applied it to every stitch, every seam, embroidered to the last floating ribbon and beaten into the most strained corset. Like liquid magma, the models emerged from the waters with their flames unquenched. The austere concrete build created the perfect backdrop against this most vibrant of colours, and AVENUE 255 exploded into the hearts of the assembly.
