Haute Couture: Spring - Summer 2018

Every detail of this season’s Haute Couture collections exudes playfulness and lightness. Fabrics, prints and technical materials evolve into neat designs, chiselled forms, craftmanship that creates contrasts and harmonies. Or evokes movements and lightness like a summer breeze.

 

 

Aesthetic emphasis lightens volumes and adorns them with embroidered gems, magical traces of light that contour elegant forms. Women are delicate and refined like an enchanted garden with luxurious colours and surprising elements: feathers, flowers, rose petals, silk, chiffon, satin, pearls, crystals and rhinestones, embroidery, sequins, organza, veils, tulle, fine fabrics and patchwork for total allure. Light sculpts chic silhouettes, at times with unexpected transparencies, highlighting tones and shades that evoke a cool summer, in symbiosis with an artistic charisma that conveys strength and character.

 

 

Lines and colours overlap, combining quality and composure, evoking the blue of the sky, the green of the land, the gold of wheat, the coral of the ocean and the bronze of trees at sunset. From black to white, from pastel watercolour tones to strong, intense colours, summer plays with its emotion-evoking colours.
