Milano: Missoni Winter 2012 Collection. Called Like a Heroine in a Concrete Jungle,
the Missoni winter 2012 collection is urban, but also pervaded with reference
to soil and moss, leaves and barks of trees, rocks and minerals, the woman of
the Missoni winter collection conceives fashion as an evocative adventurous fantasy, a dream in
the city of immersion in nature, of empathy and mimesis with landscape.

and brush it lightly for nice bushy eyebrows.”
Missoni Winter 2012 Collection – hair. Hair stylist Eugene Souleiman with the plaid
shirt and knitted hat created the hairstyle using Wella Professional products.
“The hairstyle is square to look at. It’s minimal in a new way, it’s opulent
and feminine, it’s serious and pared down and looks different from different
angles. The girls look handsome and
intelligent.” He explained.

Missoni Winter 2012 Collection. The contradictions defining the Missoni
woman’s femininity are emphasized also by the color palette, which mixes the
dominant urban tones of concrete and asphalt grey, with shades of autumnal
wood, ranging from ivory to ochre, from volcanic orange to rust, and from moss
green to mineral brown.
