Jil Sander 2011 Spring Summer Show

Raf Simons said that he and his team once discussed new minimalism together, but this led him to turn to another opposite direction -- complexity, and he immediately applied to the tailor made series. This should be an invisible challenge for Jil Sander's core customers, and it will also make Simons feel excited because it is a spark of inspiration for the brand to inject vitality. As a designer who is fascinated by lines and proportions, there is nothing more expressional than manual customization, but the proportion of traditional customization methods in modern fashion has been very small with the age. Simons has turned the process into visible fashion through small skirts and short jackets.

Although Simons is very keen on a lot of details and decorations, this time he shows design intentions through flowers and stripes. Background music also changed from Bernard Herrmann's Psycho music to Busta Rhymes. The model carries a plastic bag on the supermarket. Freja Beha Erichsen is wearing a navy blue coat and a sash free Japanese taffeta skirt. Such Casual Luxury reminds us of Yves Saint Laurent's love for British opera costumes. When audiences go to these theatrical venues, such as Glyndebourne in southern England, they like to wear a raincoat casually outside the dress.

Another reason why I have to mention YSL is that since June when Simons was released in Florence's Pitti Uomo men's clothing, he has been trying to deconstruct Saint Laurent's understanding of color. This work reflects his precise research results. How do you understand the color palette of Simons? Green motorcycle jacket, pink skirt and bright yellow broad leg pants? Purple tunic and bright orange skirt? Or a pink and yellow shirt under a bright red coat? Everything is so gorgeous, as Simons often describes: "colorful cream cake."

If this show really wants to pursue that effect, Simons really has no choice. Because there is no way to discount colors, but in fact, apart from color jumps, there are still a lot of products that can be worn out: jackets, stripes, and loose but styled tailoring. Moreover, if the wearing effect is ideal, these large and magnificent skirts will definitely stand out in the high street collocation.
