The Alexandra Moura Spring/Summer 2012 collection breaks traditional fashion rules with the designer’s fearless use of stripes. The collection references a multitude of things including different time periods and art movements with an end result that is vibrant and memorable. The edgy designer tackles menswear in a playful way that keeps comfort in mind. The clothes are bright and geometric with stripes featured as a predominant print.
The classic stripe pattern is brought to life in a variety of ways. It is showcased in masculine- and feminine-inspired silhouettes. Effortless sporty looks walk alongside shorts that resemble ruffled skirts. The incorporation of relaxed and easy fabrics like cotton, silk, jersey, wool and vinyl make a bold statement. The daring collection is a sea of color on the runway with memorable surrealistic sunglasses and painted ears that complement each look.
