Pastel colors came out to play at the Blumarine Fall 2013 runway show.
Though lighter colors are atypical of fall collections, the designs are still autumn appropriate but maintain the aesthetic traditionally seen in spring and summer collections. The designer chose to stay within its known minimalist style as most of the pieces maintained a monochromatic theme. Powder blues and elegant peach hues were the colors of choice, which was seen on almost every one of the garments. From long trench coats to nicely tailored pleated pants, the overall collection was a unified and visually stunning masterpiece. There was some wonderful fur elements included, which created a more amplified luxurious quality.
Full of feminine numbers, the Blumarine Fall 2013 collection featured at the Milan Fashion Week was a resounding success.
