CRUISE 2008
A Mediterranean wind is blowing on the CELINE 2008 by Ivana Omazic . References to Vallauris, evocations of the Rivieria in the 1950s or memories of Jacques Deray’s film La Piscine, animate a fresh collection.
Knitwear with contrasting stitching or “Chinese lantern” sleeves that can be worn over the new striped polo dress with neck and sleeves in immaculate poplin, a dazzling detail also present on the jersey dresses.
The ultramarine trench coat in cotton canvas also has its shantung equivalent, with a leather belt and the neck fastened by a button strap. A special label with the famous Sulky , the emblem of the House of Celine, has been reserved for the trench coats of this Cruise collection .
Extremely feminine, the cotton dresses are tied at the front or delight us with a drawstring neckline in cream silk. So fifties, the dress in creased crepon silk with retro blue prints on white background evokes the alluring Brigitte Bardot on the French Riveria. The collection‘s eclectic mood also authorizes more sportswear zips on double faced waistcoats. Under the waistline of the trousers, a leather belt fits over hips. The pagoda shape borrowed from Autumn/winter 2007-2008 delicately emphasizes the shoulder line.
For the evening, long dresses in jersey are accessorized with embroidered necklines. Refined details which lend the new CELINE 2008 Cruise collections its unique appearance.
The palette: sand, beige, white with shades of lavender blue , ultramarine, sunflower yellow, sand rose, garnet.
