Milan Women’s F/W 07 – ETRO
Veronica Etro’s inspiration for Fall/Winter is a mix between a 20’s style flapper silhouette and a DaDa art for the bold and geometric prints. The opening section jumps into the top trends of the season. With a full leg pant, bold prints on metallic fabrics, structured knit pieces and heavy leather jackets. But she keeps the color palette at a minimum sliding between gray and white with small hints of bold colors here and there. She also keeps the skirt lengths at the knee opting to stay away from the short trend. One of the standout looks in the opening section is a black sleeveless cashmere cardigan with a turtleneck. To finish the look Etro showed sleeveless white cashmere knit dress with a geometric design on the bottom half of the dress. For the second section the mix of basic black piece with prints in rich colors of brown, caramel, emerald green and yellow. One of the standout looks in this section is a gray and yellow geometric design print on silk chiffon skirt worn with a sleeveless gray cashmere stop with neckline embellished with beading.
Etro does show several pieces with a bubble hem and tapered leg pants. For the closing section she keeps the looks more dressed up and emphasizes color metallic. The standout looks for evening are the heavy outerwear looks. First a full silhouette jacket done in a heavy ¬knit with a black and dark olive green design. The look is finished with a black silk crepe full leg tuxedo pant and a silk chiffon blouse. The other standout look for evening is a matching pencil skirt and a draped neck top in the same black and olive green geometric print knit. Etro finishes the looks with a heavy black wool coat with the sleeves trimmed with black fur.
The must have looks this season are two dressed up day or business looks. First is Molinari’s gray wool baggy leg suit. The jacket is tailored with wide lapel and belted around the waist with a double black leather belt. The other must have look is a brown and gray printed knit skirt worn with a matching cape jacket in the same heavy knit. This season Veronica Etro focused on the classic Etro prints and took them from the fabrics and incorporated them into some strong knit pieces for Fall. While the collection is a little lacking in the color department, Etro presented a very strong commercial as well as editorial collection. Bravo Madame Etro!
