Kaito Hori and Iku Furudate of Commuun were inspired by Africa and by feminine elegance for their A/W collection 2010. Having selected their models carefully with an all black model-cast. The pair thought it would only be wise  to work exclusively with ebony beauties, and played up the skin tones of the all star cast with a color palette of ash gray, cream, burnt orange, deep gold, and cranberry.

For Commuun’s Fall 2010 show, the designers presented draped one-shoulder cocktails, strapless tops worn with printed skirts, statement overcoats/jackets. All aemphasized with tribal inspired metallic green makeup. The simple, strong shapes of the outerwear mixed with the sensuality of the cocktails made for an effortlessly chic collection,perfectly suited for a graceful African queen
