Alberta Ferretti SS 2012

 

Alberta Ferretti seemed to carry on where London Fashion Week and the likes of David Koma left off with her sheer fabrics and paneled dresses.  She kicked off her collection with a monchrome feel before introducing brighter tones of Coral, Emerald and Fuschia on her paneled dresses which created the geometric look we have seen on many different catwalks so far.

 

She followed on from Gucci with her 20's inspired drop waists and  introduced her tribal prints and earth toned garments, with multi pocketed shirts, knee high skirts, thigh high slits and a whole lot of crochet.  Her garments were light with a lot of silk and chiffon being used, before going onto heavier fabrics for her finale.

It was back to black for her final look of the show, with her beaded evening dresses that were heavy on the top before transforming into a sheer fabric that danced around the legs of the models wearing them.
