The Kolonaki Summer 2014 collection includes a series of skirts, dresses and matching two-piece suits that appear fit for the classic prairie girl. Large sun hats add to the pastoral vibe, a motif that is further teased out by long floral stems.
Kolonaki is a label based in Spain. Spanish roots are reflected in the blossoms and bright colors, the exact shades that one would expect to find in the nation's countryside. And yet, despite its country roots, the apparel is equally appropriate for wear in urban settings, especially when paired with high heels as is the case in this Summer 2014 lookbook.
A simplistic white backdrop offset with strips of wood is all the brand opted for when producing these images. It's apparent that little else was needed.
