Shot by Paolo MusaFashion / ShowMarni AW14Forget sports-luxe, welcome sports-couture in fearless folk detailing and sculpted silhouettesShareLink copied ✔️February 23, 2014FashionShowTextSusie LauPhotographyPaolo MusaMarni AW14 Initial reaction: A sportswear-attired tribe: sportswear has long been part of Consuelo Castiglioni's oeuvre at Marni but today it was amplified with couture-inspired silhouttes, made to look "off" in some instances and then finally given a folkloric and artisanal twist. Stand out looks: Nylon padded tracksuit tops and bottoms worn with high funnel necks and huge turn-ups – they gave new meaning to the term sports-luxe. When Castiglioni got visceral, you had an array of feathers multiplying and swarming all over skirts and coats. There was a sincerity about the application of fearless folksy detailing. The prints: Magnus Plessen's stripped painted portraits were printed on silk aerated tunic dresses. The look of dripping and chipped off paint was turned into a print. The hair: Wet hair gelled and matted over the forehead – windswept and sea drenched. It was just as textural as the collection. How they wore it: Yet more fraggle rock fur as per many of the shows in Milan, but at Marni, they were worked into brightly coloured elastic-banded stoles or earthy-toned giant patchwork fur coats, cinched in at the waist.
