ALBERTA FERRETTI wanted to return to her real
Ferretti woman for her autumn/winter 201 3-1 4
collection - wiping the slate clean of all the sea shimmer
and sequins of spring/summer 201 3 as she did so.
"It's the recognisable Ferretti shape and still authentic,
the importance is the precise sty le and the quality - the
shape is in the detail. It's v ery sophisticated, fragile and
strong in between," said Ferretti after the show, one
which saw her dev elop that signature silhouette into
the Edwardian era for little fitted jackets that had an
equestrian strictness to them, frilled and ruffled little
skirts, and fresh white and embroidered dresses - alway s
a thick black ribbon around the waist.
This time round there was more structure, with the use of monochrome creating a
cleaner and more graphic aesthetic - prim and pretty from the outset as opposed to just
pretty pretty as she's usually known for.
Collars were high - something we'v e been seeing throughout the international collections
so far - and enhanced that Edwardian feel, as did bustled coats and skirts to giv e shape
and v olume. They came with pleated pelmet details on the hips too.
In tiered lace and frills, looks were kept the right side of y outhful and modern, worn as
they were alway s with a pair of flats. Ferretti explored the v ery short and the v ery long
and prov ided a more substantial and v aried wardrobe for the new season where last time
it had soley been romantic and sequin-strewn. Here there was more v ariation for the
better, while still satisfy ing the Ferretti woman and ticking some of the seasonal trend
boxes along the way - embellishment, bright colour and shapely coats.
