Pristine Fancy
Transcending from 2013 collections, white seems to have trickled into Resort 2014. Played in the avatars of cream, ivory, and even dirties, white was seen majorly clubbed with sheer elements, in flowing dresses, and even tailored cuts.
Looking back to the wilderness days of the thirties is this Derek Lam's simple plunge-neck white dress with huge pockets. Donna Karan as usual kept it superbly timeless in this halter neck maxi dress enthusing Grecian vibes. Chanel's show in Singapore has been receiving rave reviews wherein Lagerfeld painted a canvas with the confluence of classic pieces of the house, cricket, shift silhouettes, and graphic lines. This asymmetrical skirt and double-breasted jacket ensemble has been rendered in the label's cult -- tweed. Valli did a white-on-white texture in this anti-fit dress.
I am totally in love with this number from Versace: Clean, minimal and sheer raglan pleating making one hell of a chic statement. Balenciaga's play on the cape within a fitted knee-length dress is commendable for the impeccable tailoring. Sport Max Mara had a lot of asymmetrical hemlines, and this white dress has been kept absolutely simple. Theysken's dress exudes dainty style with full-round skirted waist down tapering.
Others we love for all white: Givenchy, Lanvin, Alexander Wang, Chloe, Diesel Black Gold, Just Cavalli, Cushnie et Ochs, and Burberry Prorsum.
Sheer-Nekkid :D Bottoms
I have an extreme affinity towards sheer fabrics. Give me laces, tulles, nets, georgettes, and chiffons and I am a happy girl. I love the versatility of sheers -- one on hand they can add charming femininity and a sense of delicate veneer, and on the other can turn an ensemble into an impact-full contemporary statement. Resort 2014 had it's fair share of sheers, especially seen in the bottom parts of the clothing. After having browsed through hundreds of looks for my research, I have to say that the eight ensembles shown below are my most favourite in the entire season.
Some may think that this look by Donna Karan's New York line seems to be a little morbid, but see-through pants are a rage since a couple of months, and have been seen donned by many celebrities. Having said this, I think with right accessories, the outfit would work really well (I am talking a bit of colour since head-to-toe black is a bit passe). Then oh Burberry -- nothing short of spectacular. I have been turned from a non-fan to a lusting lover. The textures, the sheer play, the simple silhouettes, the seeming juxtaposition of the informal and the exquisite together create one hell of a collection. Please do have a look at the other numbers -- fabulous is the only word for them. Shiny metallic and divinely see-through, this Christian Dior number is just so perfect -- I mean there's no visionary overload yet it is so quirky. Have you guys been noticing that throughout many of these looks, knee-length seems to be the only way to go. I also adore this polka Gucci number with a halter neck in a luscious shade of rust.
House Givenchy went the sheer-pant route too. They also have a gorgeous, similar ensemble with full sheer pants in all white which is my second favourite in the collection. I was pleasantly surprised when I took a look at the Jason Wu releases. He hasn't really been a liked creator I am sorry to say. Yet I fell in love with the surface textures of the outfits immediately. I love this light spruce number with similar-toned embellished motifs on the fabric -- it is perfection! Well for Alice and Olivia, the ensemble does the war of opposites a.k.a black and white, a huge trend of SS 13 and apparently now for Resort 2014 too. Love how the prim, proper jacket gives way to a very 'classy' tease! Finally, this simple number by Chloe is actually chosen by mom who's been looking at collections with me. She loves everything that is non-fussy, dark, and spelled Chloe... haha!
