Summer 2007: «Give me Liberty!» (Part 2)
Designers Michael and Nicole Colovos have presented their first cruise collection for Helmut Lang, having added a little risky glamour to images of the brand, known by its at times excessive sugariness. Working in a graphic palette from black and white, designers have preferred the minimalism once making a Fashion house’s basis. Knitted details, deep cuts and layers have added depths both to straight and strict silhouettes, and softer and delicate ones. “Hits” of the show were some straight narrow suits.
The place of dresses with wrap over created by designer Diane von Furstenberg in the new cruise collection have taken tunics with А-shaped silhouettes. Zippers became decorative elements on mini-dresses; the abundance of paillettes and rivets decorated skirts.
At last, Valentino cruise collection, who is actively preparing for Fashion House’s 45th anniversary celebration in Rome, has become 43th cruise collection of the designer. Valentino, who knows all his clients, has offered in a new collection dresses and suits in style of the true ladies: some are decorated with flower applications, others – with prints and laces.
