Spring / Summer 2013 collections from around the world

Allude SS / 2013

URBAN LUXURY … it ’ s all about the dialogue “ In terms of the manufacturing process , it has been quite a challenge . We have combined the finest cashmere with leather to fulfill the highest standards of workmanship ”, says Karg . “ And we achieved this by collaborating with the best and most experienced artisans .” The result : leather and fur intersecting in harmony with cashmere to create a new urban Allude Silhouette . In this collection Andrea has maintained her usual slim , figure-hugging silhouette , contrasting with a strong boyish look – sharp lines , crisp tailoring with masculine details . Cashmere , the material she is most passionate about , is weighted accordingly : from the finest knits of wafer to extremely opulent tailored multiple textures . A unique combination resulting in an ultra feminine hyper-cool look . Karg surprised her audience with four striking men styles . The designer ’ s colour palette is a response to the urban landscape - Petrol and Steel Blue paired with Dense Black .
