AW13

Developing spring/summer 13’s sun-blushed colour palette, for the new season wintry shades of purple and turquoise are complimented by citrus tones and contrasted with more muted khaki and black.

Fabrics from the archives of Italian mills are rewoven to offer contemporary interpretations of sartorial staples. Cloth normally used by couturiers and thick alpaca bouclé are delivered in unexpected colours, creating modern wardrobe essentials. Belted military overcoats are lined with long haired sheepskin and quilted trousers, jackets and even a cape come in boiled cashmere cloth filled with white Hungarian goose down. With every stitch and dye, traditional fabrics are injected with fresh appeal.
