The consistency of the Marni look is one that is off-kilter, includes crazy prints in a kaleidoscope of muted bright colours which are juxtaposed with beiges. These prints provide the canvas for deconstructed designs and a look that is ‘nana chic’.
It is a look that keeps fashion editors and quirky fashionistas coming back for more of this ‘wearable art’ to add to their collection, season after season.
For Autumn/Winter 2010, there are plenty of these quirky prints in colours of muted mint, aqua and beige. They make up dresses with matching bags, jackets and pantsuits. The pantsuits themselves had further quirky touches, such as wide arms and cropped legs.
Whilst designer Consuelo Castiglioni paired heavy ribbed knee-high socks with dresses and trousers, there were still looks that were more classic. Printed t-shirts with sequin detailing would look cute with jeans or plain trousers.
The dusky pink draped dress, with black side panels in the shape of tears, had a romantic vintage feel and could be worn day or night.
