In store now – 1930’s Deauville and 1980’s Florida
Women
The relaxed, glamourous atmosphere of 1930’s Deauville has inspired elegant pieces such as bias-cut flowing dinner dresses and a masculine, yet sensual, tuxedo jacket. Coco Chanel, with her elegant and casual sense of style as well as the ability to mix masculine and feminine pieces, has been a great influence in creating a fresh look still so relevant today. Sweaters with classic French stripes and a summer peacoat jacket in soft wrinkled linen are smart garments for a refined look.
For the more powerful edge, Filippa K has found inspiration in vintage French Elle magazines of the 1980’s where an energetic vibe dominated and women were portrayed as strong, free and athletic. The comfort of jersey fabrics has always been part of our design and this season we are re-discovering figure-hugging dresses in firm jersey, as well as corset tops and one-shoulder styles in bright colours and shiny materials.
To continue the power chic look, shoulders are an important focus. Hence, a distinct shoulder is seen on tailored jackets and coats as well as fine knits and evening jerseys. The exaggerated pagoda style shoulders gives edge to a sharp chic coat as well as a tuxedo jacket.
Pantsuits in different versions are in focus this season; in washed silk with rolled up sleeves for daytime, strapless, shiny jersey style for partying and printed chiffon with wide flowing legs for evening elegance.
Prints are feminine, either abstract with uneven spots in summery colours or graphic and delicate. As we cannot seem to get enough of stripes, two-tone stripes can be found on jersey tops, knitwear and even vertical stripes for summer dresses.
Colours are bright and vibrant, with Royal Blue, Coral Pink, Sunshine Yellow, Turquoise and Jewel Green, set against a backdrop of greys, beiges, navy, white & black.
Men
Florida of the 1980’s with its easy-going mood and breezy feel has been a major source of inspiration. The juxtaposition of masculinity, lightness and playfulness in colour and cut, gives a look that is sensual yet manly and relaxed with a hint of glamour. Softly tailored suits mixed with casual t-shirts and espadrille style shoes sums up the mood.
To get that crumpled laid back look, most of the fabrics are pre-washed. The casual look can be found on cotton summer suits, as well as shirts ranging from classic white styles with rolled up sleeves to brighter tropical check patterns and sand washed silk. Jersey tops are either relaxed pastel t-shirt styles with generous necklines and button fronts or more sophisticated with collars and detailing. Linen is a summer favourite, ranging from sloppy knits and jersey tops to elegant summer suits.
Colours are unusually bright and fun, infusing energy into classic pieces. Tones ranging from Swimming Pool Turquoise, Spearmint Green, Candy Pink to Canary Yellow are set against a backdrop of neutral beiges, greys, navy, black and white.
