Marni collection for Spring 2010 gives us a different look of what we used to traditionally see on runway shows. To start with, the models wear a hippie head scarf tied over artfully disheveled hair; dangly flower earrings; a terra-cotta duster coat over odd, stripey leggings under wide floppy dresses. The trousers look more like pajamas. The colors are difficult to define – plaster pinks, mousy beiges, and rusty browns. You like the high-waisted, vertically striped knitted skirts, and write down “return of kitten heels.” The putty-colored sleeveless jackets remind of the military trend. The combination between dots and stripes might look more than tasteless to you, but let’s not forget it’s Haute Couture and anything is possible there. You may not decide to wear the loose socks in sandals, but at least be aware of the fashion trends for Spring 2010. Enjoy the Marni collection.
