RE-BALANCE
ALCHEMY OF MATTER AND FORM
Vertical, like Halston's purist and perfect structures.
Steeped in archetypes, capable of capturing cellular memory to pour us into the future:
the robe manteaux, revisited with architectural embroidery;
the black cape, with floating micro-fringes of biscuit leather
feathers on kimono lines from the 1980s.
What is Beauty if not balance?
The plunging necklines, on the décolleté and back, are tempered by the charm of birch viscose in earth-sea spots.
They sink into the brown bark texture of the cady, framed by bezels and diamonds.
At the core, the finest raw materials: georgette, cotton velvet, cady, pure viscose, leather, and silk satin. Linings are strictly satin.
The tones are primary: navy blue that veers towards black, dazzling white, champagne and coffee, slate black, burgundy.
On the basis of an undeniable perfection, the decorative and structural alchemy of the ensembles is grafted.
Silk-satin-chantilly blouse/wool lace skirt/camel wool pea coat with dropped shoulders in full Eighties mood
Ultramarine blue vertical dress/micro sequin encrustations/velvet coat
Double-breasted geogette coat/Tibetan curly fur/burgundy boot.
Each element is modular, as nothing overwhelms the balance of the components.
Lace, tubular embroidery, sequins, fringes, and feathers are positioned in key areas, taking the eye out of its aesthetic comfort zone and leading it toward numerous possible codes of whirling elegance.
The urban goddess dares to use optical white in wool, in pure white fur. Or she opts for camel mixed with wool, like a trench coat, with boundless charm.
The fur processing is of the highest quality: the texture is threaded and then manually knitted, in some cases overdyed in a pictorial manner.
The passe partout is the naturally elastic, démi longueur lace dress.
