Luca Luca Looks East for Pre-Fall
Renata Espinosa
December 12th, 2007 @ 6:58 PM - New York
Subtle Asian-inspired elements were the basis of the Luca Luca Pre-Fall ’08 collection, presented in their New York store on Madison Avenue on Tuesday, Dec. 11.
The collection, the second pre-fall offering from Luca Luca, emphasized construction but done with simplicity, featuring origami-pleated waistlines, rounded shoulders, asymmetrical draping, as well as details like delicate floral and branch motif embroidery evoking a Japanese landscape. A muted color palette of rust, steel blue, cream and heather gray gave the collection a feeling of serenity.
Luxurious touches included sable trims, wool fabrics with an open weave, forming a delicate burnout effect and stingray belts.
Texture was also key, such as boucle wool or a nubby silver acrylic coat lined with silk, or beadwork and embroidery.
The result: Lady-like, but not fussy, the kind of clothes that would appeal to women across zip codes, whether she lives uptown or downtown – what Luca Luca does best.
