The ITALIAN cut : FLIRTY AND FEMININE
Published: Volume 14, Issue 7, December, 2006

Beanie caps, print leggings, short tunics and knit pantsuits are the highlights of Emilio Pucci's Fall 2006 collection

It's the season to be warm. So the label's newest designer Matthew Williamson brings in a novel experience complete with soft, svelte yet clean cut lines in both vintage Pucci prints and plain solid coloured textures. The palette flaunts a medley of jet black, pebble grey and exponents of aubergine and fuchsia in wool, jersey, georgette and mohair. For classic elegance, black rules. Whether it is in the hooded wool coat banded with a sprinkling of ethnic crewel work or the printed silk jersey dress or the flowing silhouette of the duchesse skirt. Belted jersey tops with matching leggings and striped wool turtlenecks teamed with snug woollen jackets complete your ensemble for the perfect winter getaway. Bring in the ivory fox fur collars to add a distractingly feminine dimension to the loosely chequered prints. Perfect pick? The satin belted beige mohair dress.

Snug skirts kiss the knees and smart tunics hover a bit higher, splashed with geometrics. Pantsuits are at their alluring best - grey wool pants with striped merino poncho, flowing overcoats with lilac insides to liven up the impact, fox-trimmed alpaca and brocade coats. Monotones flaunt your figure to an advantage whether it is a purple woollen suit or a camel overcoat with broad collars and chestnut buttons. Yet if you are looking at a higher accessory quotient, go for the cashmere knit caps in lilac and flowing woollen scarves. Soles talk stylishly through unmistakably flirty bows and fine straps in white and black leather. Platform shoes, lizard and lambskin bags with slim chains and chunky buckles sass up the Pucci cavalcade. Choose from varying shades of muted pinks, brooding purples and black and white streaks for that elusive pizzazz factor.

As a special touch, Emilio Pucci and Italian pen maker Oman have come together to create a charming new ball point pen, available in both resin and steel versions. This is your perfect writing instrument, with its easy flow of blue or black ink. Make it your enviable fashion accessory, wrapped in Pucci's signature style.
