This season embraces fashion with a twist. Everything
is not what it seems. The explosive use of color and
print seems almost inspired by the flamboyant Rio
Carnival. All of the splashes of acid brights, sprays
of hot house florals, exploded hibiscus, bursting
antiqued roses, Indian paisleys, and the geometrically
dazzling "pucci style" makes the season
fun and frivolous. An astronaut influence adds a metallic
touch to it all.
The
contradictory mood of this season's fashion queen
is all about maintaining a delicate balance. She
looks proper, but never "prim". She is
naughty, seductive, sensual and, yet, she is always
sweet and nice. She definitely has them guessing.
As
I mentioned, this season embraces fashion with a
twist. The look ranges from the functional military-inspired
structural lines and details to the retro ?s punk-inspired
designs. Even the innocence of the tasteful 1950s
lady has something to say. Jackie O and Marilyn
Monroe's highly-polished, sweet sophistication sweeps
over us again with clutch bags, full skirts, cardigans
and 3/4 sleeve jackets.
Whatever
the look, the key to being a "hot lady"
this season is in the mixture of pretty innocence
with a little daring. The feminine reigns, no matter
how hard the lines, or how bold the design. Fabric
choices
range from slippery satins and Chinese silks, to
high-tech coated twills and denims. Everything this
season is quirky and fun. |
