Helmut Lang

RESORT 2008

By Nicole Colovos & Michael Colovos

Michael and Nicole Colovos first resort collection for Helmut Lang added a welcome edge to a season often known for its saccharine prettiness. Working in graphic black and white, the designers respected the minimalism that is the house s heritage without being limited by it. Knits, skin-exposing cutouts, and layering added texture to straight, streamlined silhouettes as well as softer, rounded ones. A pair of narrow suits were the show s highlights.
