Missoni
As guests entered the Missoni show this season through a giant courtyard, where children innocently played games and were amusingly unmoved by the fashion circus that circled around them. Upon entering the space, editors were seated amidst giant wooden zigzag structures by stage designers AAAHHHAAA (oui, that is indeed the name) that carved out the shape of the runway where the audience was treated to “A pop’n’xotic fantasy”. Such was the theme of the Missoni show this season. What exactly does that mean? That classic Missoni zigzag pattern got treated to plenty of Japanese influences in big, bold colors. But if you are thinking of some of those classic Missoni knits, think again. Spring was about a cool new take on the brand’s traditions so it’s fitting they looked East this season to a culture, simultaneously rife with new ideas yet steeped in tradition.
