Ms. Demeulemeester is no newcomer to knocking our socks off, but this season was truly something magical, from luxurious materials to extravagant silhouettes and an overall dark, romantic mood. The description may sound typical of Ann, but this season she really took it up a few notches. Instead of the purple making its appearance once again, she stuck to black and earthy tones, which in the end, did much to enhance the overall luxury feel of the collection.
I felt a bit of stagnancy in some of her past mens and womenswear lines, so this collection has been a true delight to see. The amount of not only thought, but also craftsmanship that’s gone into this is admirable. Here’s to hoping she carries this decadence over to her women’s Fall collection.
