Photos by FW

LONDON, Feb 17, 2005/ FW/ --- Clements Ribeiro Autumn/Winter 2005-2006 collection is definitely directed for a fashion forward customer...

20’s silhouettes in rustic colours and styles is the theme of the collection. The styling details of the clothes showed craftsmanship, yet the overall style is geared towards a more eccentric Far East customer.

Once you separate the garments from the layered styling and estrange hair and make-up, one will find some functional suits and lady-like gowns.

He begins the show by showing many floral bunch prints on baggy skirts and jumpers mixed in with some ruffle flare skirts.

Old lady cardigans were spiced up with sequins embroidery. Pumps were styled with black socks throughout Ribero’s day looks.

The collection showed many nice tweed suits reminiscent of the famous suit from a Grand Parisian House.

Husband and wife design team even put a sexy spin on rustic men’s suits of the 20’s. These little boy cuffed knicker suits would look superb with the right boot and belted. A few pencil skirts made their way down the catwalk layered with some fur coats.

Some of the more extravagant drop waist dresses with intricate beading and sequins made this collection seem more polish.

Although the 1920s were a time of freedom and dance, it was still wartime in which Clements Ribeiro depicted through his assertive Bag Lady Chic styling.
