Dear Shaded Viewers,
Ann Demeulemeester presented a beautiful and poetic show. Working with a restrained colour palette, she focused on great, slouchy paper-bag waist trousers, which she paired with tailored shirts and streamlined coats and capes.
Outerwear was a strong theme in the show. I loved the soft, chestnut fur coat with a huge shawl collar.
Feathers have always been part of Ann's vocabulary and those pieces she showed towards the end were just exquisite.
Best,
Philippe
