COLLECTION INSPIRATION

“Our Spring/Summer 2013 Collection embodies a strong, distinct tempo going back to the days of restlessness where we dressed with our hearts. It encompasses the glamorous and giddy flapper girls and the ultra dapper men of the night. It is all about beauty and splendour. The base colours are onyx, bone, gold and coral. Gelato colours, pistachio, dusty mint and blossom as well as the classic combination of French navy and cream with hints of metallic and shimmer.
The ladies-wear silhouettes include the Peplum waistline, highlighting a womans curves in a demure manner. Waterfall hemlines are created by using silky sheer chiffons, lace and leather. High waisted, midi lengths and elongated trouser lengths come together to achieve sultry femininity. Eveningwear embraces bias-cut slips with a touch of sparkle, all styles which effortlessly beckon dancing into the moonlight.

The men’s collection incorporates crisp ecru cotton with double breasted jackets and peg-leg trousers while short sleeves shirts, raglan silhouettes and collegiate styles use superfine knits, spun twill and cotton silks. Whether razzling in the city in an elegant fitted suit or lounging poolside in a T-back vest, bermudas and nautical maillot knits, it’s about finding calmness in the hysteria.”
