Fashion Flickering Glance

Ultra Femininity

As I was always interested in delicacy and beautiful details, I sketched the nina ricci collection ss11 for its breath taking beauty and femininity. For Peter Copping, femininity may mean a lot of ruffles, frills, gathered sheerness, all dipped in a palette that went from demure whites and creams to a build up of hot jewel tones that are also in keeping with the season.

The whole collection represented the lightness of fabric and, with a bit see-through of the underwear and detail design of the back, there were also some backless silhouette, suggested the overall emphasis was on a sense of ladylike glamour.

Peter Copping has been investigating the limitation of femininity power for the past few seasons., as I researched the previous collection, since he started to be the director of Nina Ricci. This time he used watercolour florals contrasting the sleek trenchcoats to approach this theme.
