Moschino

RESORT 2013

By Rosella Jardini

Moschino has entered the packed sporty-couture arena with its new Resort lineup. Judging by the stamina this trend has shown over the past year, we d say it isn t too late to join the race. Rossella Jardini came across a high-tech mesh intended for the bucket seats in race cars and whipped the house s signature little jackets up with the pro-grade stuff. (We wouldn t be surprised to see designers using NASA space suit material soon.) The stretchy trench and cropped zip cape, in particular, complemented electric poppy floral prints found on silk shift dresses and a long crepe de chine jumpsuit. Jardini also riffed on her folksy Fall collection here. She was ahead of the curve on peasant dressing—it s really taken off this Resort season—so the costumelike black skirts and frocks trimmed with white ruffles and whipstitching felt particularly relevant.
