Azzedine Alaia is the only designer which shows his collection whenever he wants, always out of schedule. Far from paparazzi, Anna Dello Russo and Russian “fashionistas”, the master of XX-XXI century couture showed his summer collection, which looked like lace- but in reality, was all about fine knitting. We had some beautiful tailored shirts, exotic leather jackets, safari suits and airy caftans. All based on natural colours, the collection was simple, but very less is more. In reality this collection was chic-er and more couture than any haute couture show presented lately. And again, Alaia proves us one basic fact- his fashion is timeless. The dress which was bought 10 years ago from Alaia looks as good as the one bought one year ago. This is a real genius of fashion.
