Alberta Ferretti Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection was shown in Milan Fashion Week, September 23,2015.

It is autumn outside Alberta Ferretti’s Show tonight it was about a sandstorm ,her collection brought to life by sand dune sirens who appeared from a desert terrain projection and wafted down a sand-drenched catwalk, upon which fashion’s current penchant for the folksy lace prairie dress continued.

Ferretti this season was bohemian. She has made a specialty of whisper-thin dresses over the years. Usually they have more of a red carpet orientation, but in this collection they came in breezy chiffons with fraying at the edges and as a decorative motif.

Gucci Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection was shown in Milan Fashion Week, September 23,2015.

The incoming march of a new generation in Italy has began, and the fashion world finds itself standing back spectating on the sudden arrival of a multicolored, sparkly, life-affirming parade.

For his second collection at Gucci,Alessandro Michele presented a wealth of ideas that firmly and strongly built on what he started to show us his intentions were last season.Michele is having none of the slick Gucci aesthetic that descended down through the tenure of his predecessor and former Boss, Frida Giannini.For sure this collection going to be one very desirable collection and one that will have significant impact on the season ahead.It was his blend of geek-chic still but with solid Gucci accessory references and everything was amped up – from colour to decoration, frills and glitter, shine, sequins and embroidery which dazzled down sheer column flounced dresses or climbed and wound round the backs of those sheer pussy-bow blouses he so managed to put on the map for fall-winter 2015.

The house’s signature red and green was used to strong effect, as were Gs that featured on backless shoes – in fact the accessories offering, what with its brooches and pearl-punched shoes, shimmering shades and more – was a magpie’s dream, expensive vintage.

Giles Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection – London Fashion Week

Giles Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection was shown in London Fashion Week, September 21,2015.

The setting for Giles Deacon’s spring show was London’s Banqueting House, an ornate building that’s part of the 17th-century Whitehall Palace, complete with a Rubens ceiling. The lavish location suited his high-drama collection. Runway veterans including Eva Herzigova, Erin O’Connor and Karen Elson snaked around the vast room wearing often fantastical gowns whose shapes evoked everything from ruffled petticoats to Elizabethan silhouettes.

One satin bustier dress was structured with stiff panniers, and intricately embroidered with flowers, while another standout worn by Elson was done in a purple abstract print, with laser-cut edges that looked as if they had been charred by fire, and fan of material at the back that resembled unfurled peacock feathers.

Even Deacon’s calmer exits were still statement-making, as in a body-hugging, bias cut gown with a train, or a silk petticoat dress with tiered, billowing skirts. The collection was beautiful and arresting, and while its historical opulence overwhelmed real-world dressing, this also gave it an otherworldly, romantic Appeal.

Christopher Kane Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection – London Fashion Week

Christopher Kane Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection was shown in London Fashion Week on September 21, 2015.

Christopher Kane surpised us each season with something entirely new to keep us on our toes. The interesting thing now is that those varied and brilliant ideas have built up as one to become his signature, a repertoire of techniques. When you see them, you know they’re his and this collection was especially clear in showing them off.

There was that neon lace, which more recently has slipped into his pre-collections, there were primary bolts of colour to configure with jagged and purposely-jarring appliqué and chaotic embroidery. It was a hyper take on homespun with stitching squiggling out like handwriting across a knit or a sheath of a dress. We knew we’d seen the idea once before, but here it was renewed and played out to entirely different effect. That was the point.

A kapow colour palette led the way for a collection that was about taking things apart and piecing them back together, the designer cited. „Crash and repair, that’s what we kept saying to each other.“

The train of thought followed what has been a difficult few months for Chris and Tammy, whose mother sadly passed away just before their show last February. So just as much as this was a collection inspired by John Chamberlain’s sculptures and Scottie Wilson, it was one that came from an emotional point of view. „The car crash became the metaphor,“ said Kane in his show notes.

And so that idea of damage and repair, of building back up, could be seen in the pieces, which were patched and pieced together: splaying fringing; plastic pockets; wafting layers of sheer with lace to trace the body; dresses fastened in place by plastic clasps, a brilliantly crude and inventive use of them.
