AMOUR FATAL COLLECTION
SPRING-SUMMER 08
Love is a consistent and deep feeling towards another person. Love touches everyone, nobody escapes from it, we have all fallen in love, at least once in our lives.
Yiyí Gutz, in this collection, establishes 3 phases of love:
- Palpitating of the heart, with that inner pain that it produces as if an arrow had pierced through the heart.
- Butterflies in the stomach produced by nerves when thinking about that love.
- A knot in the stomach when you are next to the person you loved.
Once again some printed fabrics are created exclusively for the collection, with anatomic hearts this time being pierced with an arrow symbolising inner pain that produces the feeling of love and the butterflies that we all feel fluttering around in our stomachs on having that feeling.
The purity of WHITE predominates, which is the sum total or synthesis of all colours and the symbol of the absolute, of unity and of innocence. It is the meeting point which takes us from the most intense RED of our hearts, considered as an extrovert personality, which lives towards the outside, has a vital, ambitious and material temperament, and lets itself go through impulse, rather than by reflection. Moving onto BLUE, which is associated with inner life and deep emotions; it is the colour of the infinite, of dreams and of marvellous wonders. To finish, we move on to details in SILVER, which is a fusion of joys and grieving.
It is a very strong feeling that makes us fragile. This duality between strength and fragility is represented in the tissues that join textures and use tissues as the cotton satin together with the voile of cotton or poplin. Textures that are natural, soft and fresh.
Ample forms, some of them have volume, and forms that fit tightly around the body making the femininity of the curves stand out. For men there are waistcoats, jackets and trousers with a touch of the “dandy” about them.
It is a happy and fresh collection that pays a tribute to the strongest of all feelings: love. |
