MILAN, Oct 23, 2004/ FW/ – If it is not colorful print eclectic then its not Pucci, and if it’s not a colorful kaleidoscope rainbow It’s not Christian Lacroix. Put the two together and there is an inevitable celebration of all things bright, so bright in fact for Spring Summer 2005 we may need to start wearing shades around autumn.
Ladies that choose Emilio Pucci are always splendidly bold, unique individuals, and for the sunny season with Christian Lacroix at the design helm there are no exceptions in a wardrobe that from handbag to shoe is one giant explosion of signature Pucci print.
Lacroix’s undoubted love for the 1960’s and the grandeur of the Pucci print archives are perfectly harmonized. Synergies meet as Lacroix sends out trenches, V-neck tea dresses, Capri pants, knee length flouncy skirts and sexy swimwear.
Casual basics meets tailored essentials like little jackets that are perfectly neat and sit on the hip, while drawstring closures and buttons on other pieces create an envious feminine silhouette with accents on waistlines through belts together with lusciously tanned long legs exposed under mini baby dolls, ribbon edge dresses and sensual splits.
Graphic Pucci details from tie up shoes with cut out wedge soles and rigid jewel encrusted necklaces add futuristic touches to a nostalgic collection. Leaving evenings for ruffles and long flowing sensual light dresses that dance like colorful butterflies in the breeze.
Collection after collection it is evident that the Pucci Lacroix adventure is steadfast, and with this match made in rainbow heaven a funkadelic wardrobe is enough to make even the greyest fashion hearts smile.
