Emilio Pucci Pre-Fall

A nod to the seventies.Pucci's collection showcases knee-high boots,suede,fringes,lace.

Peter Dundas said he focused on extreme lengths for his Emilio Pucci pre-fall collection, which was filled with Seventies references.

The lineup was commercial but somewhat safe, as Dundas stayed in his comfort zone, sticking to signature silhouettes and aesthetic codes. A straight suede coat cinched at the waist was cut long, while a parka with a round hem and a fox-fur collar was short and voluminous. Lace inserts with curved shapes added a graphic touch to mini dresses featuring the brand’s well-known colorful patterns or rich beaded embroideries. Dundas also showed a black-and-white version of his signature tailored tuxedos, as well as evening dresses in sexy cuts.

Alexander McQueen Pre-Fall

Sarah Burton devised a wonderful collection where leather gains precedence .The models are also seen wearing knits and beautiful dresses.If you would look at the collection,it will remind you of an "English rose",very pretty and feminine.Leather always provides a 'tomboyish' look whereas here,leather provides a ladylike look .The collection serves as a sartorial inspiration .
Dare I say,looking at the pieces,I can almost see why did Sarah Burton design a Royal Wedding dress - the collection,no doubt,is worthy of belonging to princess or a duchess's wardrobe.
