Milan: Fashion Week – Marni S/S 2013. Firmness. Sparseness as elegance. The new Marni S/S 2013 collection is a weightless exploration of volume. Form is reduced to its pure essence, laid bare to expose the precision of the cut and beauty of the fabric.
Creative director Consuelo Castiglioni and global PR
Karla Otto.
Marni S/S 2013. A-line, trapeze and to the knee. Pleats and peplums create sensuous additions on tops and skirts.
Marni S/S
2013. Clothes stand away from the body,
gently drawing moving contours around. Block flowers and simultaneous motif
entertain the eye.
Marni S/S
2013 - Accessories # 1. Sunglasses are big and bold.
Marni S/S
2013 – hair. Once again Paul Hanlon creates a whimsy and deconstructed hair style, “It was
inspired by the house model Alexia. It’s a “raw” pony tail twisted into a loose
bun.”

2013 - backstage. Style.com’s Tim Blanks interviews Marni’s stylist Lucinda Chambers.
Marni - backstage
Marni S/S
2013. Minimalist quality. Silhouettes are clean and sculpted. The line is effortless yet compact.
Marni S/S
2013. Straight and round are juxtaposed just as the front and the back are: a
square top is paired with a flared skirt.
Prints highlight and gently distort the neatness of the design. Checks and sequences of sliced dots have the
hypnotic rhythm of Anni Albers Bauhaus experiment.
Marni S/S
2013 – Make-up. Tom Pecheux explains the
make-up on camera. “It’s perfection like the clothes. Totally effortless and
looks perfect with the Marni clothes.”
Marni S/S
2013 – accessories # 2. The jewelery is
always bold at Marni this season, metal and wood create Bauhaus animal like
shapes.
Marni S/S
2013 – backstage. Models are given wash
painting T shirts from Rop van Mierlo’s Wild Animal
series for Marni.
Marni S/S
2013 – accessories # 3. The sandals have
a modernist feel. Pointed open-toe sling
backs with a metal wedge and wooden platform flats resemble architecture.
Marni S/S
2013 – accessories # 4. The handbag is
either geometric weaves of leather and
pvc or precise and boxy in style with padlocks.
