Especially those that relate to the cultural and social attitudes of the time, revealed here by a stylistic approach which favours the geometric shapes, cuts and volumes of dresses, suits and outerwear reflecting the workmanship of classic English tailoring of the period, and embellished with detailing in leather, plastic, maxi chains, appliqué and embroidery so intrinsic to the world of Versace.
The VJC woman radiates glamour and elegance, conveying these qualities through the lightest of plissé fabrics, innovative necklines, and a waistline that is slightly raised above the normal. The macro volumes of the tops contrast with the more restrained volumes of the bottoms to achieve an everyday look with a sophisticated allure.
Over-cardigans or turtlenecks and tops in lightweight yarns and slim line shapes in strong colours are teamed with close fit, clean-cut denims. The geometrics of the dresses, the neat little jackets and fitted coats in warm cloth, hopsack or bouclé wool, with covered plastic maxi buttons, contrast beautifully with the soft look of flowing drapes and plissé.
The dresses, whether in jersey or in silk, are equally fluid, while the slim trousers in cotton, stretch wool and satin alternate with skirts that can also be teamed with prints for an interplay of colour. Branded clips, back belts in plain leather or patent with metal or diamanté rivets define the look of the denims.
The same mood runs through the accessory collection. The collection is priced from Rs 12,000 – 72,000
and is available at Blues Clothing Company at G - 13, South Extension, Part I & Emporio Mall, Vasant Kunj, New Delhi.
