Courrèges S/S 2017

Mood board: True to form – both literally and figuratively – Courrèges showed strong silhouettes that remained close to the house’s futuristic identity. A stark white cocoon mini dress with minimalist kangaroo pockets opened and set the tone for a streamlined collection that focused on graphic appeal.
Best in show: A long black leather coat with the Courrèges logo embossed on the chest was covetable in its timeless simplicity, while a slightly cropped shearling jacket with orange and black trims looked instantly modern.
Finishing touches: Just a few models wore large silver sculpted hand cuffs, and some big silver ear clips in abstract forms, lending an air of space age mystery to these chosen ones.
