The one thing that always has and always will continue to allure me into fashion is not only the amazing clothes and trends from season to season, but the life of the woman who wears the clothes. What is she wearing as she is jetting off to Paris for a couture show or flying away to a far away island of Fiji? It is not only the clothes but what they represent by the woman who wears them each and everyday. So when a collection very specifically portrays the woman herself with such strength and poise - I am immediately connected.
Here at Nina Ricci's show, Copping chose to design for a woman "in charge but not in an obvious way." There was a sort of edgier or harsher femininity to the outfits. Don't let the ruffles and bright colors fool who, because the eyes say it all.
This collection was truly so magnificent. I love the soft and girly pieces especially with contrasted items like the simple leather and silk satin closed toe heels. There was room for the subtle, the bright, and the dark - sort of taking on the different personalities of woman - eh?
