Photography by Lea ColomboFashion / ShowJil Sander SS14Pleasing Sander purists with clinical lines, refined texture and subtle deconstructionShareLink copied ✔️September 21, 2013FashionShowTextSusie LauPhotographyLea ColomboJil Sander SS14 Initial reaction: Clinical and controlled; stepping into her stride and embarking on new textural territory. References: Italian conceptual artist Alighiero Boetti, energy fields and random access memory moments. Stand out looks: The painterly prints combining expressionist brushstrokes and a camouflage effect, a pearlescent shift dress and a black satin jacket with the open vents. Unexpected details: Feathers in a Jil Sander show. Harnessed under restraint, of course. Accessories: Sparse and strategically placed - a structured bag with PVC panels mirroring the painterly prints, three-fold leather clutches and wooden sculpted wedges. Most likely to: Appease diehard Sander fans with her boxy tailoring and subtle nods to deconstruction. Least likely to: Stand in a uniform line - this was Jil Sander being playful with a random assemblage of different silhouettes. Atmosphere: Precise and finessed - the models walked through perspex panels placed like architectural interventions around the catwalk. Soundtrack: Ambient techno build up composed by Frederic Sanchez. Quote of the show: Jil Sander's kind of poetry. Through the looking-glass, back to the material world Declaration of purity, moving, gazing, craving transcendence Breezy freshness, airy suspension, joyful serenity Cybernetic curves and proportions Jil Sander SS14Photography by Lea Colombo Models: Maartje Verhoef (@maartjeverhoef), Elodia Prieto, Kate Goodling (@kategoodling1), Vanessa Axente (@VanessaAxente), Nastya Sten (@Kusakina_Nastya), Kai Newman, Paulina King, Kayley Chabot (@kayleychabot), Ine Neefs, Elisabeth Erm, Cici Xiang Yejing, Zoe Huxford (@zoehuxford), Josephine Le Tutour (@JosephineLT_), Charlotte Lindvig, Fei Fei Sun (@FeiFeiSunSun), Marine Deleeuw (@marine_deleeuw), Julia Nobis, Katlin Aas (@AasKatlin), Maja Salamon, Irina Liss (@irinaliss), Hedvig Palm (@hedvigpa), Esther Heesch (@estherheesch), Sabrina Ioffreda, Zlata Mangafic (@zlatamangafic), Tilda Lindstam (@tildalindstam), Carla Ciffoni, Josephine Van Delden (@josephinevandelden), Ophelie Guillermand (@ophelieguillermand), Eva Berzina Escape the algorithm!
