Christopher Kane is not too proud to name his shame. He’s an ophidiophobe—he’s terrified of snakes. But, just like the song lyric goes, fear is a man’s best friend. From the very beginning of Kane’s career, snakes have slithered through his collections to great effect. In his pre-fall collection, Kane used not only serpentine leather, but also something much more… nuclear? No, that doesn’t mean we saw radiated snakes. Literally, ATOMS were all around the collection- on dresses, on necklaces… this might be a pretty scientific mix of trends, but you can’t expect normal from Chris.
