Missoni S/S 2015

The airy stencil-cut paper screens that were suspended throughout Missoni's show space gave an inkling as to where Angela Missoni's head was for next spring. Billowing and light, this was one of the most loosened up, carefree collections she's delivered in years. The clothes weren't see-through, but they possessed a gauzy lightness that could only be achieved by Missoni's wizardly skill with creating knits as fine as cobwebs. Despite the new maxi-lengths, which came on everything from dresses and skirts to topcoats and trenches, nothing ever felt heavy. Missoni cut her clothes safely away from the contours of the body, allowing the lines to drape like slowly sloping tents on peasant skirts and dresses. New, too, was a happy palette of coral, peach, turquoise, iris and grape that reinforced the relaxed rhythms and sunny mood of summer.
