Mood board: Time to get on a diet, girls! Isabel Marant’s silhouettes for next fall — extremely short, or so tight that they require a liberal body oiling — are not going to give an inch. Most pieces worked around Marant’s new exaggerated high-waisted silhouette, like unforgiving stovepipe wool pants or micro mini skirts that require a lean set of mean legs.
Best in show: Apart from a sailor motif, Marant also worked a new ikat angle for fall. The best use of these ethnic textiles were on oversized, sporty silhouettes like flared collar military and pea-cut wool coats.
Finishing touches: Marant’s footwear always creates a seasonal frenzy. This season the new boot is a midcalf bootie or over the knee version with thigh guards, both of which come clamped with oversized silver military buttons.
