CELINE S/S 2012

New York, Madrid, Milán, Paris.. fashion's weeks are already finish and all designers have done their exams with their spring/summer collections. Having a look at all of the shows and the pictures in backstage's, i realized that my favourite one this time (and it's becoming one of my favourite designers too) it's Celine.

Since her debut two years ago, Phoebe Philo has won legions of fan thanks at his simple-minimal-useful style that made fall in love lot of women. Women that have gotten used to all things sleek and streamlined (for example the unadorned leather Classic box bag that launched so many imitators). But for spring, Philo is thinking about "shape", about "very three-dimensional sculptural silhouettes" that accentued the bits that felt strong, to tried to create new proportions (like the belts on the waist or A-line leather tees with the pleats, for example).
She is one of those growing number of designers who take inspiration from fifties and sixties this year (you can see it clearly in the rounded sleeve of the army jackets or at the peplums circling the hips) but also the one who never leave her spirit of new era and minimal look. No prints, few accesories, save from leather bags and ankle-strap pumps that, personally love (want/need!) that were the focus of the show.

I attached the entired fashion show video for all of those who didn't saw it yet. ENJOY.

Ann, x.
