Benetton Fashion : SISLEY Fall/Winter 2006/2007

SISLEY: Women’s Collection.

Sisley Benetton Fashion

Increasingly acclaimed as a trend-setting brand, each season
Sisley presents cutting-edge styles in tune with the
international fashion mood.
Perfectly in harmony with the latest
trends, yet with the good taste and restraint needed to give
pleasure. Femininity is the byword for next winter’s collections
and is seen everywhere, even in the more masculine styles or the
most sporty or casual fabrics.

City chic: an urban look, 24/7 sophistication. Black, blue and
hints of pink colour the whole wardrobe, with updated 19th-
century touches of lace, frills and jabots. Close-fitting coats
with decorative buttons or wrapover, tie-belt cloaks are worn
over clingy skirts and polo-neck sweaters. The Empire-line
sheepskin jacket marries low-waisted trousers. The power suit
opens to reveal sheer jersey sweaters, knotted or frilled, and
the seductive all-day dress goes from knitted fabric to velvet
and from jersey to printed silk crepe to emphasise a tongue-in-
cheek, self-confident brand of femininity.

Uptown girl: the aggressive style acquires a fair amount of
cheekiness. Lingerie T-shirts go with army-style overwear -
especially an updated version of the flying jacket in faux mink
– generously low-cut pullovers, ultra-romantic shrugs, sprayed-
on jeans that leave nothing to the imagination and microskirts
for fantastic legs. The treated and softened wool and cotton
fabrics are coloured in faded shades of grey, teal and purple.

Baby baby: acrobatic creativity, in other words childish
shaping, masculine fabrics and feminine colours. The triple pike
jump is executed perfectly et voilà: a supremely wearable
wardrobe. White and red overwear makes a striking difference: a
little coat worthy of the “clever pupil”; a double-breasted
jacket in herringbone wool with a deep knitted band around the
waist; a Prince of Wales check short jacket with a college look.
Soft low-waisted dresses of printed jersey with a plastron and
dolly styling, or silk crepe with Art Nouveau bouquets. Soft
angora or mohair baby knitwear with inlays and different
stitches.

Crossroads
: in other words the point where different moods,
atmospheres and influences, which started from who knows where,
meet together. The colours and style of the English countryside
are seen in the tweed trousers worn with a heavy knitted jacket
with a Torchon collar, and in the high-waisted velvet check
blazer worn with a Prince of Wales check wool/cotton gathered
skirt. Another mood for the rather masculine vintage coat worn
over faded jeans; yet another, vaguely gipsy, for the flouncy
denim skirts worn with loose, floral blouses, or voile skirts
with purple and green flower sprays worn with long, clingy
jersey T-shirts. The colours are earthy with bold dashes of
saffron, sage and sky blue.

Street kick: a style born in the street and worn for fun.
Colours on denim, colours on blue and army green, colour on
tartan and more colour on padded jackets. Wool cloth, heavy
cotton, velvet and fleece together with denim create easy-to-
wear clothes with something of the gym and something of the
army: the tracksuit jacket, the short jacket, the Bermudas, the
warm pullover, the sleeveless cardigan, oversize or leather
trousers.
