MILAN - RTW S/S 2008



Marni. The Marni collection was wonderful; I really loved the bold silhouettes and the linear structure. The straight cut dresses and tunics were softly gathered at the waist. The cast resin applications created neckline details. The spectacularly full and voluminous skirts had restrained pleats. The long jackets closed in front, zipped at the back, looked elegant with the long and tapered pants. The collection was both romantic and structured and above all, very wearable.

Marni – The Designer. Marni's designer, Consuelo Castiglioni was very happy, backstage after her modern, strong, structured and colorful collection.
