Fabric Inspiration – A/W ’16-17 – “Shiny Sequin”
A season can never truly be complete without a little bit of drama and that is exactly what was brought to the table with designers going all out, plastering palettes over dresses and slathering sequins over separates to create a glittering array of attention-grabbing pieces.
Designers used sequins on skirts, dresses and even pant-suits, proving that any silhouette can be turned into a shimmering number.
Aquilano.Rimondi wasn’t going to settle for anything without silver sequins constantly appearing on his tops and skirts, whereas, Blumarine and Gucci mixed 3-4 shades of sequin on their separates- the former utilizing them on a long dress and the latter, doing so on a show stopping pant-suit.
Versace adopted the same technique of playing with colours but went with brighter and more neon shades.
