At Iceberg designer Paolo Gerani molded the 70’s glitz and glam with the sexy 80’s lengths and colors. Gerani opened the collection with this seasons gold trend with gold tones moving into shocking prints of orange and yellow. While gold may be an “it” shade for the season, the hit looks for Iceberg are all of the bold and vibrant prints, another top trend for Spring/Summer. One of the standout pieces in the opening section is a strapless orange and print swirl print on silk chiffon. The dress is draped and pinned on a bias with a satin and gold chain wrapped around the torso. Another great print from the second section is a yellow and fuscia tropical fern print on silk crepe. The dress is a plunging v-neck cocktail dress worn with a matching belt. Another trend that Gerani kept to this season is the short length dresses and skirts.

In the second section Gerani showed several neutral color looks and then moving back into more gold tones. The standout pieces in the second section were the brown and white tropical print used on chiffon, crepe and satin. One of the key uses of the print is on one of the few outerwear pieces from the collection, a silk satin parka style jacket with balloon shape sleeve. In the third section Gerani again shifts the color palette of all white and then back to yellows and oranges. One of the standout pieces of the white section is another great outwear piece. Another parka style jacket in white silk satin with the sleeves and front panel of the jacket detailed with balloon shapes. While this jacket may be just a little over the top, the key to the Iceberg collection is the unique and salient pieces and looks.

The must have piece of the collection is one of Gerani’s notable print looks, a brown and white tropical print on silk chiffon strapless cocktail dress. The chiffon is draped on a bias with a white satin ribbon and gold chain wrapped around the torso. While Paolo played with the 70’s and 80’s theme in this collection, the result is a modern take on these trends. Gerani’s sexy silhouette is evident in this collection giving the Iceberg customer a reason to dress up but not too audacious. The key looks for Iceberg are the abundant use of color and sexy silhouettes. The only really misses in this collection are the monotone dresses and the some of excessive use of the bubble shape on some of the dresses. Overall for Spring/Summer Iceberg delivers us a vibrant and energetic collection, absent of the drab black many designers are choosing for warm season. Bravo Monsieur Gerani!
