A white fur Yeti style opens the more awaited show of the day, that of Louis Vuitton which can be defined with three adjectives: minimal-chic, technological and modernist.
Three adjectives as diverse as similar that Nicholas Ghesquière uses to build and idealize the new collection from Louis Vuitton for fall winter 2015-16.
Few frills for the woman who will wear Vuitton clothes with clean lines, but dominant. The cuts of the jackets for suits are clean, accurate. For short dresses are decided and glimpse a clean formal and stylistic unprecedented minimal indeed. The few “poetic licenses” that takes Ghesquière are making sinuous tech tops, knitwear and skirts and soft and cozy furs.
To this must be added the stylistic rigor technology that has a dominant role on clothing that is on accessories. Abolished lace and applications that place to laser cutting, 3D effects on bags and cases and idyllic but futurist prints on short dresses at the end of the parade.
Overall, therefore, the collection looks to the future but is not futuristic. He is torn between modernity and the past, between what made the glory of fashion in the 70s and 80s and what is now fashionable. A beginning of the path that if continued, will revolutionize fashion.
