Initial reaction:
A measured woman covered in safety pins and pastel PVC.
A new era:
This was Alessandro Dell’Acqua’s first collection as creative director and felt very much like an exercise in exploring the boundaries between severity and romance, something he achieved.
Clinical vs. couture:
Power blue PVC was set against heavy embellishments made up from silver safety pins, whilst sumptuous pink wools created airy A-line silhouettes, reminiscent of decades past.
Hidden details:
Bat wings covered black evening dresses and adorned the side of tinted sci-fi glasses.
A hint of perversion:
Found in the seemingly Allen Jones inspired ink black patent A-line skirts.
