22 December 2007 (Sawf News) - Sisley plays with the zodiac groups' four elements in its collection for next spring-summer and creates magical moods with a strong astrological feel.
Earth
For people of character, with their feet on the ground, the colors of the earth: dusty gray, sandy yellow, Dolomite pink, earthy brown and clay red. For her, outfits that cling and reveal: shape-hugging dresses, shorts, pedal pushers that are almost leggings, fluid knitwear with deep necklines and overwear in nylon or other fabrics and - so we don't forget the subsoil - metal. For him there's denim and pumice grey, too. Casual outfits with urban bermudas worn with a leather jacket-style barracuda or a waist-length trench coat.
Water
Giving free rein to imagination and gentleness: impeccable white and subtle pale tones with unexpected contrasts in passion red or ocean blue. For her, a cruise mood in soft slacks and Bermudas, casual skirts, chiffon cocktail dresses, minimal coats with lacquer-red belts, faux-leather short jackets for strolling along the quay, and shirt-styled jackets. He adapts to the mood, dressing with "instinctive" elegance: white or blue suits, cotton windcheaters or jackets.
Air
With our head in the clouds and a light heart. "Airy" colors with sunset accents; textured fabrics and aerostatic volumes. She favors 40s-style trousers, blouses with statement sleeves and bows at the waist, halter tops, fluid jersey dresses printed with stylized drops which fell from a plum or cornflower-blue sky. He turns serious and wears a technical-taffeta trench coat, a pinstripe suit, leather jacket, a tie and a pullover (with a classic or slanting diamond pattern) to protect against sudden gusts of wind.
Fire
A concentration of overpowering passions and allure: intriguing black, glistening bronze, radiant ivory. She is sexy and very aggressive, flaunting her legs or hiding them under sprayed-on pants. The leading articles are: faux-leather jackets, crocodile-print mini-dresses and knitwear with huge sleeves. The others are in keeping with the theme: burn-out sheerness, plunging necklines, patent "glints", chintz and zips. He is dark and handsome dressed in black or marron glacé: his outfits are casual, relaxed, layered and even floral.
