Tisci
Goes Gothic Once Again
Riccardo Tisci has often been
inspired by religion so it was little surprise to see strict tailoring and
austere shapes that recalled traditional religious dress in his Haute Couture
lineup this season. Most notable were a fringed velvet cape, a degrade beaded
top, and a fur-lined floor length short sleeve coat.
The autumn palette of rusty
red, beige, black, and various shades of brown further contributed to the
collection's gothic undertones. With the exception of one shoulder-baring look,
none of the pieces revealed much in the way of skin, further contributing to
the ecclesiastical feel of the collection.
