Collette Dinnigan never fails to produce girly, sexy and wearable clothes. Her Autumn/Winter 2010/11 collection caught my eye this week. Most of the collection is black however each piece is texturally diverse. Dinnigan used a lot of lace, snakeskin, tulle and intricate beading. At first glance each piece can seem quite boring and plain. When looking closer you notice the black dress is actually made from at least two different materials. Delve even closer and you see the little sliver number is actually made from dyed snakeskin. It’s refreshing to see an Australian designer making clothes that are feminine this winter. Many – for example Sass and Bide and Willow - are opting for more edgy and masculine garments. The clothes seem awkward and unflattering on a woman’s body. On the other hand, Dinnigan’s collection nips in the right places. It emphasises the waist, the length of the garments are youthful and respectful, and the necklines are sweet and sexy. All-in-all I love this collection and I wish I could add a few of these pieces to my wardrobe.
To see the whole collection head to Vogue.
Love Me.
