There seemed to be Ample reason to like Angela Missoni's Fall 2014 collection for her Family Label, Fun, Quirky Clothes. Bright, Snappy Colours. What's Not to like, Right? So, why didn't I like it? The collection lacked something Intangible that would have set it on the right course. Taken in Individual outfits... Some really good work, As a Whole though. It left me Wanting. The counterpointing of the Warm Oranges and Yellows with Browns and Autumnal shades against the later Cooler Blues and Greens gave a Particular Imbalanced effect to the show. As Self-Contained colour schemes, Fine. But just try pairing one piece from one colour segment with the other...??? Danger, Will Robinson!?
Another Bad decision, The Unfortunate colour blocking that when it worked looked Artistic and Graphic, Like in the Coat of Exit No. 8, but when it didn't, Looked Sloppy. As an aside, Why did the fabrics, Like the one in the aforementioned coat. have a horrible tendency to look like Carpet Remnants? No one wants to look like they've been Shopping at Home Depot for their Clothes! Many of the Pieces/Outfits had Instant coolness about them, But not the greater half of this Fraction.
Potent Pieces to be had, A Mustard Yellow Utility coat, or a Sleek Colour Block dress at Exit No. 14 or a Smart Colour block print Dress at Exit No.Exit No. 28 but these were a mere few of the Handful of pieces that didn't connect the dots into a Pleasing Picture. The Missoni Woman will have tons of Options this season, Her only problem is going to be how does she put those options together?
That's All.
Bye4Now!
