FENDI SS09
The new silhouette this season starts from the shoulders, while the hugely prominent ‘big shoulders’ give a nod to the 80′s. For SS 09 they are going to be authoritative, steady and self-confident.
And it’s NOT JUST about PADS and structured frames, look for EMBROIDERY and EMBELLISHMENTS too. ( Fendi/ Herchcovitch)
MARC JACOBS SS09
The look is unmistakeable and not just remarked upon in up-to- date women business suits ( Marc Jacobs/ Maison Martin Margiela), but is also carried over into blouses ( Proenza Schouler), little squared dresses ( Max Mara/ Christian Lacroix) , jackets ( Louis Vuitton/ Nina Ricci/ Balmain), and even the humble t- shirt has built-in shoulder pads ( A. Wang).
BALMAIN SS09
Fashionistas are showcasing jackets and tops with built-in broad boxiness shown at Dolce & Gabbana on a pyjamas jumpsuit. For a cheap, chic update, slide a pair of detachable shoulder pads into a cardi or coat. Combine the boxy jacket with new peg trousers, cigarette pants or capri pants.
CHRISTIAN LACROIX SS09
And if you’re going for it, remember that this look needs 100 per cent commitment. Finally to make this look really work, you should add retro accessories or better still ala ‘A. Wang’, rolled up sleeves for a Miami Vice feel! Look for scarf type belts, bug glasses and huge chunky earrings.
