Milan FW 2008: Part I

BURBERRY PRORSUM:


This season, Christopher Bailey focused on proportion. He balanced a short silhouette over long legs in high platforms (ahhhh!!! platforms!! love them!!!). Coats curved at the hem. He worked in his great pieces with boyish jackets in menswear fabrics.

"As the collection segued to the luxury end, the handcrafted coats became ever more complex and textured: in multi-pleated, knotted strips of organza; pieces of fox fur cut out and re-appliquéd; piled-up shredded leaves of chiffon. Accomplished as these were, though, it was the more pragmatic, younger end of the collection that recaptured some of the freshness the collection has been missing in the past couple of seasons."

Marni:

Not much going on here. There were great colors and classic Marni looks (capes, cropped pants, loose tunics). Overall...safe. You can't really critique the classics. I did love the accessories...mainly the shoes! These are shoes that I can see myself wearing (had I the money!)
