Prada...
Well, i thoroughly enjoyed prada this season.. but to be honest i always do. the whole business at the beach theme was a realy joy and those silkscreened prints of an end of the world beach scene with nuclear colours were outstanding. but the real showstopeprs were the jewelled shoes, the water droplet dresses and the cuts of the suites and early on garments. the seams looked like they were ripped open or apart, brilliance and the shoes like cascading water. alot of woman will want this in thier wardrobe.
Givenchy!
Riccardo Tisci has excelled himself this season. with his strong severe giometric prints, in tights or layered jackets with amazing cuts, in colours such as olive, woody greens and browns, black and white strong strong strong editorial pieces. but half way through the collection these amazing draped chiffon dresses in musty browns and creams. With this incredible appliqué i especially love the ones worn by Amanda laine and Daiane Conterato.
Towards the end came these lacy esc shirts and dresses to finish the collection off, with pure romanticism but still a darkness to the collection (as with all of Tiscis collections for couture and pret á porter) which we LOVE!
CHANEL...
well... i just loved chanel this season, i am normally one for the avanté gardé, however chanel is one of those brand thats is so chic and timeless. even when take the girls to a southern dutch barn as it appeared to be in this season. the collection for a better word was very twee, Chanel jackets in soft pastel, pinks, creams, white and blacks with a little plaid printed full skirts and jackets. not only was there flower bags,near enough each girl stutting out in.....clogs.... yes clogs. towards the end. more royal blues and reds moved into sweet ballerina skirts. delightful acsessiories, long necklaces in silver and chanel bags, some with cut out floweres pinned onto woven bags. and some the tradition quilted chanel handbag.
With Lily Allen on the mic, each girl having a beaming smile, and Freya, Lara and Baptiste having a romp in the hay at the end. the show was pure delight. soft tulles wrapped around some of the girls and my particular favours longer chiffon dresses that shows the girls undergarments. it was all perfect in my eyes. Karl created a triumph this european farmgirl season
.Missoni
Angela Missoni knows how to create incredible knits... and this season they were a softer light, more summery interpretations of Fall09. however she gave them a chic urban twist.
This season she used very very light soft pastal colours for example; a soft pink, pale blue, dusty creams. on the knitwear and the chiffon dresses, but as always with Missoni they were all very layered looks so she put girls in calf length chiffon dresses with a long knitted cardigan placed over the top half off the shoulders, knotted at the waistband. or a knitted dress with a knot on the waitline, very relaxed very casual for spring summer at Missoni... i know where ill be looking for ideas what to wear next summer.
Celine
Leather Shirts... what can i say?
there is no doubt that Phoebe Philo knows who she is a designer and her latest collection for celine proved just that.
i dont know what was the best part of this collection, the cut, the leather or the colours, Phoebe has such a god sense of colour, which dates back to her Chloé days. the collection, was almost chloé Phoebe, with the wedge sandals, high waisted tailored trousers which had this heir of the seventies with the elongated legs and widely cut. however it was so contemporary and modern with the strictness of it all. the cut leather shirts, shorts and skirts were completly chic. then with the bolt of naval blue it took the repetativeness camel and creams (which we adore though) and gave it something special that wow factor. this collection was the wow factor. GO Phoebe!
