makepiece spring summer 2010

SS10

 

There is strength and purpose underlying this collection of frocks, tops and wraps, an air of transformation, versatility and resolution but softened with adornments, layers and volume.

Makepiece Spring Summer 2010 brings strong silhouettes overlaid with romantic detail, ruffles and ruching, ribbons and plaits. Volume and drape knitted in sheer translucent mohair, fine smooth woollen yarns create plaits, ruching and ruffles, lace-panelled felts for structure.

Again designer Nicola has created garments that transform, adapt and change throughout the day and over months and years … a lifelong companion, beautiful, versatile and kind.

This cornucopia of knit is coloured like the end of warm summer day, a harvest home or wedding feast.

 

This tender evening soothes

The sun-baked hills and pools

Warmth in to our hands.

A soft breeze moves us on 

And blows the rose

Whose petals trace the steps we took

Palms pressed and hastening.

The grass we rustled whispers tales

Of fleeting footfalls, holy days

And sweetness, laughter, wedded in

To find in bliss matrimony.
