New York inspired Max Mara Pre-Fall 2015
Max Mara Pre-Fall 2015 collection is evocative. The Lower Manhattan and all its galleries inspired the black wool crepe tailoring like the redingote, the ankle grazing bias cut skirt and the double-breasted blazer.
A series of looks in total red evoke Trisha Brown’s dance company, usually dressed in scarlet red. From Animal Estates 1.0, Lynx rufus, Tyto alba and Kinosternon subrubrum claim their natural habitat in animalier prints and cashmere jacquards kilts, best to wear with leather minis. The parkas, oversize and reversible, are in chestnut cashmere and thin nylon in soft owl grey.
Alpaca dominates the wrap coats of Max Mara Pre-Fall collection, animalier here goes in sleek otter brown. Colors for the shiny techno-silk used for the trench and a little bomber jacket to layer under a coat. Ultrasuede down jackets, unexpected touches of metallic mesh, luxurious hiking boots and thick cashmere rib beanies emphasize the message: cool, classic and sexy
