Airy and iridescent with codes of elegance and seduction, we take a look at the SS15 Zimmermann reinvented gypsy girl\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n First impressions<\/b><\/p>\n Airy and iridescent. Layers of lace and satin.\u00a0 Seductive.\u00a0 Elegant.<\/p>\n Then – those shoes.\u00a0 Lest we get hung up on ‘elegance,’ newcomer Nicky Zimmermann cues us into something more, something cooler, with patent-leather mules – black and bordeaux, emblazoned like the back of a tarot card with a crescent moon emblem.\u00a0 Then there are those silver hoop earrings, another hint – turns out, Zimmermann’s graceful SS15 girl has a bit of gypsy blood in her.<\/p>\n Black magic woman<\/b><\/p>\n The gypsy turns up reinvented in sheer, puffed sleeves, and gathered marbleised skirts, yet photographs do this collection no justice.\u00a0 These clothes were meant to\u00a0move<\/i>.\u00a0 With the exception of a few (very elegant) bodysuits – all even these had fluttering frills – it would be impossible to find a look that didn’t yield a highly satisfying bounce with every step.<\/p>\n Asymmetrical hemlines and layered froth made for a rippling of confectionary fabrics, and even stiff-looking pleats had the gift of magic.<\/p>\n ‘Disheveled Plus’<\/b><\/p>\n Consider Banal Plus,\u00a0W<\/i>‘s recent interpretation of the sweats-and-sneakers “normcore” trend as the standard\u00a0W<\/i>\u00a0aesthetic, paired with Nike socks and sandals: that is, everything how it should be, with the one with one thing (slightly) off.<\/p>\n Although here was no Banal, there was certainly that ‘one thing off.’\u00a0 There was the glittering button-down, tucked in with the buttons off-centre; the open, belted trench coat, rakishly spilt over an exposed shoulder; the cinched lace dress, with the fabric bunched up droopily over the waistline – a hint of dishevelment in every look.<\/p>\n It was the effect of a perfect dress, with a fallen spaghetti strap.\u00a0 It was ‘Disheveled Plus.’<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n
