UNITED COLORS OF BENETTON: FALL/WINTER 2007/2008 WOMEN’S COLLECTIONS : GlobalGiants.com
WOMEN’S COLLECTIONS.
United Colors of Benetton predicts next winter will be "hot", but global warming is not a factor.
The warmth lies in the soft and comfortable fabrics; a frothy triumph of knit effects. The mood is that of the mountain chalet for the city. The colours are from the forest and the fireplace, whilst lines are soft & embracing, without clinging.
Working Chic: for the town and office. Short quilted outerwear and wool coats worn over feminine gored skirts, loose Bermuda shorts in various lengths, with baggy pullovers and blouses in masculine Oxford fabric or floral silk, all in restrained military tones.
Swedish Interiors: Daywear in neutral “gustavian” shades of creams, greys & ochre. The shape is A-line, with coats, capes and jackets in heavy weaves & substantial textures, and cable & plait knitted jumpers, skirts & coats. Trousers and skirts in masculine fabrics teamed with bow tie print t-shirts in lurex fabric.
New Grunge: An imaginative take on historical dress with bright colour combinations. Velvets, faux furs & leathers, mixed with chintz and worn with layered, baggy and embellished knitwear.
Fake Blacks: Inescapable and indispensable black is a must. Reinterpreted in technical, metallic and stretch fabrics Menswear classics are given a typical womenswear flirtiness. Sober coats, biker bomber jackets, high-waisted trousers and above –the- knee skirts worn with leggings.
