Jil Sander RTW Fall 2012
Raf Simons made his final Sander statement one of positive beauty, gentle and refined. He opened with double-faced clutch coats (literally — the girls grasped the fabric closed) — pale pink and dove gray, tobacco and bright pink — with the unmistakable air of late-Fifties couture. He then went into a veritable dissertation on innovating the lingerie reference. Though intricately constructed, dresses, many in powdery makeup shades, combined tones and textures with visual ease. (The knits amazed.) Even substantial folds of PVC looked lovely rather than aggressive. The elegance continued at night with bare-shoulder beauties, both dresses and pants.
what color is tobacco??? like…dried leaves?
