  EnlargeThe image - Strong, sketched, linear, glamorous, sophisticated, well-defined. The ideas - An exclusive "techno-ethnic" blend ie. Techno fabrics applied to ethnic shapes and vice versa. Double and fake double finishes. Double and padded lightweught materials. No collars. No buttons. The contrast effect in the combination of materials: roguh with refined, gloss with mat, light with dark. The Colours - Love at first sight for english pastels contrasted with a preference for bright shades of green, turquoise and ruby. The emphasis on black as linking element. A natural bond with neutral colours from putty to mud, dove grey to cold brown. The highlights - Anike-lenght skirts with a love waist band of close ribbing; short jackets with large kimono sleeves; jackets cut like indian shirts; overcoats in bouclé wool; "gurkha" duster coats with double finishes; outerwear in stitched and padded velvet with a cordonnet finish; little tops in masculine fabrics worn in place of jackets and pullovers; slim trousers under tunics; oversized trousers matched with men's cotton shirts; trousers which are pleate below to knee and paired with ultra mini tops. The evening wear - Colour, graphic patterns, light, geometric effects, and linear shapes are the leitmotiv of a sophisticated and innovative evening wear collection. Highlights are the "light-catching" embroidery applied to net or tulle backgrounds with a "spider-web" finish; sequins, crystal and baguette beads in acid green, torquoiseeeee or ruby "arranged" in geometric patterns or strong floral ones; full and precious embroidery with "highlighted" shaded effects. The silhouettes are deliberately slim and linear and feature long dresses with neat necklines, skirts, tops, bodies, trousers and jackets defined above all by the colur and by the embroidery.
