Giles Fall 2007


Giles Deacons collection was inspired by a love of nature. His outerwear was bombarded by over-sized, thick cable knit scarfs and head wraps, however, his use of colour grabbed the essence of a fall forest with bright orange, green and brown hues. Feathers decorated everything from head pieces to footwear. The large wool sweaters were not on my list of things to be desired, their bulkiness did nothing to compliment the female form. My favourite pieces were the playful, colourful and texturized evening dresses. Among my favourite was a short, deep rich purple satin cocktail dress with puffy 1800's inspired sleeves and embellished colar.
