Emanuel Ungaro A/W11

An abundance of girly shapes and fabrics were seen at Ungaro with furs, feathers and frocks in satin and velvet. An aviary theme was the most obvious influence with a stunning translucent body piece appearing all bird-like with feather trims along the arms and neck reminiscent of Aronofsky's Black Swan glamour. Oversized coats of pale pink or turquoise fluff were worn with dramatic pencil skirts whilst sculpted satin bodices appeared in dark netting, decorated with sequined claws. The models with elegant slicked-back hair and dangerously long red nails were swathed in shimmering sequins in semi-precious colours like emeralds and sapphire, where jewelled owls glared from their abdomens. Whilst understated graphic prints in swirling smoke appeared in lilac and violet tones worn with heavily structured A-line skirts.
