S11 Gucci

For sure the summer of 2011 is one with a bold color palette. We already saw the splashes of color during New York and London Fashion Week, but now the 'real thing' has started at Milan fashion week where Gucci yesterday presented a bright and fun colored collection. They combine these brights with nude tints and some glamorous gold, we can see the seventies inspiration Frida Giannini had for the next season. This collection does nevertheless remind me a bit of Aummer 10's LV and Chloe collections, probably because of the tassels and 'bohemian' feeling, which I and with me probably thousands of others, did not expect from Gucci. Signature again though was the slick back hair and bright red lips refering back to sexy look the brand normally shows.
