Milan Fashion Week S/S 2012: Womenswear
Sportmax
Sportmax said it could have titled its spring collection 'Reflections on the Water' and we're not exactly sure why they didn't. This was a runway dedicated to all forms of shimmering, iridescent materials, from the glimmering pointy-toed stiletto shoes and oil slick trousers and dresses, to the metallic inner flaps of trench-coats. The challenge with iridescent fabrics is how not to make clothes that look like disco balls. Sportmax overcame this hurdle by layering in plenty of menswear staples, like cotton shirts and pocket details, and mixing in stiffened pastel cotton pieces, scuba belts and a great floral print which looked best as a two-piece sleeveless top and Bermuda shorts combo in featherweight fabric
