Alberta Ferretti Spring 2012 Runway Review
Alberta Ferretti takes a rebellious turn for spring.
|
The urban jungle has been a popular reference point this season, but it’s Alberta Ferretti who finally got it right. Straying from her usual feminine, Grecian goddesses, Ferretti showed a much more modern, one could even say sporty, collection. The most striking pieces came first, as the designer used a technique called intaglioto replicate tribal tattoos in chiffon and there was a shape for everyone as the ‘tattooed’ dresses came in many variations. These peek-a-boo panels, another trend of the season, were youthful and charming rather than indecent. Twenties references such as drop waists and cowl backs made appearances and there was a hint of flapper rebellion in the models undone hair and relaxed silhouettes.
