Marni – SS17

Really interesting one button single breasted suit. I like the that the button is high on the chest and I also like the rounded edges of the blazer too. Those trouser are wide and crop and they have a lovely flow about them. The leather is oversized, just look at those collars and how the models hands are hidden away by those sleeves. 

The leather shorts, seen in many of this seasons shows. Again it’s all about the scale and oversize is the choice. I love the colour that deep khaki is gorgeous. The jumper is lovely, let’s look at the cut. The shoulders and chest are oversized, the raglan sleeve just adds to the effect, the waist is narrow and the contrast that gives is lovely.

More of the delicious khaki leather, this time in a classic 3 button single breasted blazer. The cut is slightly oversized but not too out of proportion. The trouser as before wide and cropped.

Can oversize be too much, I don’t think so. These shorts are a case in point, hugely oversized but the drape and the cut make the whole style work. The hoodie is also oversized but not excessively, the print is fantastic and it’s styled with the tuck in.

I love knitwear and this is a great peice. I love that burnt orange colour and the short sleeves which I’d like to see more of on the high street. The trouser are a wonderful drape and flow about them. The jumper styled tucked in to the trouser which is a theme running throughout the SS17 shows. 

More of those oversize shorts, matched with a lovely candy striped shirt. Effortlessly stylish.

I haven’t yet mentioned the free hanging waistband on the trouser and shorts in this collection. It’s in interesting concept on the design of the trousers, I like the little slice of colour from the shirt showing through it adds a lovely break to the colours. The shirt is has a fantastic mix of relaxed cutting from those big wide sleeves and the cuffs turned up contrasted with those sharpe collars and fly front to hide the buttons. Just gorgeous.

Marni SS17 – This collection is all about scale and proportion, oversized is also contrasted within the same peice. I love those drape trousers with the free hanging waistband and also those oversize shorts. The leather has a sensual quality to it and wonderful colouring. Simple candy stripes which I’ve seen in other shows as well. I like the ease and simplicity of this collection, fantastic work.
