GaryHumeforMarniFW10
This is not the first time I talk about Marni's FW10 collection. In fact, I pretty much elevated it to the heavens in the review I wrote about it during last Milan Fashion Week. After that, we saw it in action worn by Sasha Pivovarova, Sean Lennon and Charlotte Kemp Muhl at the Met Ball. And now, after buyers have made up their minds and a bit over a month from the first of the Fall collections hitting the stores, brands such as Marni start to release further details about some of their products.
If you look back at the last collection from Consuelo Castiglioni you will remember how the designer included arty printed t-shirts to go with her innovative silhouettes and interesting colour palette. As it turns out, the designs of the t-shirts were created Gary Hume, a British designer known for his simplification of colour. An explanation is rather out of the question once one glances at Hume's work with Castiglioni's past of bold colours and simplified designs in mind, no?
I'd quite like to get one for myself had I not have to save the banging £437 they cost (even if they're made of silk). Would you spend that much on a t-shirt?
I'm off.
