Giving life to the Homeric heroes of the Odyssey, transformed by fresh optimism that one ready to sailors, a rhapsody of lightness emerges from the languid swing of a silhouette. The aquatic fauna and flora are left guessing profusion in textiles with lush colors and light as feathers, turning into air and carved figures, the intrinsic dynamism impressions of bias cut of Vionnet.

Gently flowing crepe chiffon, Georgette crepe, silk tulle and lace adorned with geometric patterns, dresses touching the floor are made of cascading pleats or sewn in parachute silk panels which swell like sails. Blouses and belts cord reproduce traditional marine knots, creating intricate constructions Linear governing meticulous drape.

Moreover, the rustle of an abundance of textures evokes the romance of a mysterious underwater world, from flowing robes wrapped in pale crepe chiffon fringed and printed bubble in the white tops cady whose cut reveals a mille-feuille silk rainbow sky. Even the Crusaders blazers and fitted pants keep an innate fluidity with their long and slender cut and ivory and pale blue shades, they testify boldly of an anti-introspection by digital embroidery and printed hidden behind their curtains fringes.

Appearing as a collage on day dresses and poplin on wide palazzo pants, a beach seen through the eye of a bird invitation to daydream for a summer getaway.
