The overall message for autumn/winter 2011/12 at Premire Visionis surprise and contradiction.
Formalwear fabrics take on a more casual aspect through laundering
and more relaxed construction,and the casualwear sector follows a crisper, more sophisticated aspect.
A renewed interest in offbeat, often ostentatious, fantasyand unexpected visual aesthetics makes for a highly complexand sophisticated season,playing on the polarities of lightness versus density, clarity versus softness,and natural versus imitation.
