Gucci SS14

Initial reaction:

A sporty sojourn through Art Nouveau for women who know how to sashay to Giorgio Moroder.

Stand out looks:

The slinky and fluid-looking jumpsuits with deep V-necklines in plain plisse silk or an art nouveau print.  

How they wore it:

Layered up strappy tops and dresses with sporty black bras.  The SS14 domination of the slip dress continues on at Gucci.  

Accessories:

Gucci Bamboo bags dripping with fringing in python, suede and leather.  Shoes strapped up in elastic with cone-style heels.

Most likely to:

Be seen in Marrakesh by wannabe Talitha Getties, hanging out by the Riad pool and shimmering in all that lurex, iridescence and sequin embroidery.  

Least likely to:

Be worn whilst doing any actual sports, despite the nods to activewear.  

Model behaviour:

New girl Amanda Wellsh opening a show, which normally features model heavyweights.  

Soundtrack:

"Reflector" by Arcade Fire

Quote of the show:

“I took activewear essentials as a starting point and set out to create a feminine take on technical outfitting, crafted with Gucci’s codes. Intricate elegance, enlivened by a refined ornamentalism that takes its cue from Erté illustrations.”

Left us wanting:

A strong drink made up of cherry liquor and a dance under the disco ball.
