WANDA NYLON SPRING/SUMMER 2017 LOOK 4
23/06/2017 - Margaux Warin
Full of life, imagination, and charming eccentricity, Johanna Senyk is the creative force behind parisian label Wanda Nylon created in 2012. 
 
Recently the winner of the Andam Fashion Award, Johanna mixes pvc, vinyl, mesh and silk whilst playing with oversized shapes to create modern, raw feminity. 

What's the last thing you saw that inspired you?

Recently I had a appointment with ladies who make hand-weaving. And I really enjoyed to discover how we can use old fabrics and more contemporaneous ones to create new things.
Loved it.

Please describe your SS17 collection in three words:

Strong, feminine, technic

What's your earliest fashion memory? 

My earliest fashion memory was certainly the « improvised creativity workshops » that I did with
my mother when I was a child, spending hours to create crepe paper dresses and using flowers and leaves we gathered to adorn them. Such a great memory.

The best thing about showing in Paris is:

The best thing about showing in Paris is probably to not being obligated to move somewhere else with all the team all the time, and to have everybody that I know here..friends and family!
I think that it’s one of the main opportunity to live in such a great and fabulous fashion city.

What was your favourite piece in your last collection and why?

My favorite piece was definitely the alcantara trench because it was a kind of lucky charm you know.. it was my first look during the ANDAM and this is one of my favorite for the season.

The best show-tune ever to be played on the catwalk?

It’s changing all the time and at each collection, so it’s a kind of impossible question. It depends on the mood, collection, design, vibes, colors and everything..

The film that most speaks to your aesthetic is:

There are too many movies that speaks the most to my aesthetic.
But Fellini or Alejandro Jodorowsky are two filmmakers who really left theirs marks and achieved to express the beauty in a very specific and objective way.

Your favourite fictional character is:

Monica Vitti - L’avventura

If only one woman (alive or dead) could wear your collection for the rest of eternity, who would you want it to be? 

If only one woman had to live for the rest of eternity, I really hope it would be me! (Laughs)
If it was not me, I don’t really know if I would mind what kind of clothes she is wearing.

Your top trend this season was:

All the chains accessories
