Antonio Marras Catwalk Fashion Show Milan Womenswear SS2014

At Antonio Marras we arrived in a fairy tale like setting today. Beautiful girls with light make-up and strangely twisted hair appeared one by one wearing the most romantic creations. A variation of printed dresses in pastel shades with extras like ruffles and large ribbons. Prints were nature inspired, depicting peaceful settings with roses and butterflies. More dreamy designs followed in shiny silk, with lace detailing and swags. Horizontally layered skirts had all sorts of fabrics combined from lace to transparent and printed pieces. But it wasn’t all sweetness sent out on the runway. Some tough designs popped up as well. Like coats with cute leather collars, like cool knitted jumpers paired with over the knee skirts, like a few crop tops and a structured bomber jacket that stood out in particular. Leather pieces got a metallic treatment and toward the end prints turned from nature to fantasy. A dramatic finale of loud violin music, maxi dresses and models wearing head pieces decorated with green leaves and butterflies seemed an appropriate ending of this ss2014 presentation.
