Armani Prive spring 2012 Couture collection


The worlds of fashion and show business collided at Giorgio Armani’s couture fashion show. The show started Jessica Chastain settled in the front row heard that she’d been nominated for an Oscar. There were cheers but Chastain held back the tears till Armani himself presented her with a massive bouquet backstage after the show. On the runway, the snake sheds skin and the butterfly emerges from a chrysalis. It natural processes influenced the silhouettes of the collection. Skirts were deeply folded like a pod. The evening pieces were sequined bodice slithered out of swag of silk.

Designer’s new accessories in the color palette starred the same absinthe bright, disconcerting green of Mocafico’s snakes. The prints had the same coiled intensity and the shiny fabrics duplicated the soft sheen of snakeskin. The jackets and skirts looked like reptile scales. The crocodile was obviously the real thing. The other message of the couture show was manmade a shrugged off casualness, jackets, hair tousled.  The strong contrast made for a strong show. Jessica Chastain believes in lucky charms. I know what she’ll be wearing come red carpet event.
