At a time when fashion starts to get dark, the Armani Prive Fall 2013 collection shone some nearly nude light onto the runway.
The Armani collection was entitled 'Nude,' and that is exactly what was delivered with gorgeous old-Hollywood style outfits sashaying down the runway. There were pops of black throughout, however most of the black came from a flowered accessory tied around the model's necks. The combination of materials such as lace, feathers and structured pieces were the defining feature of this runway, and it was those features that added interest in an otherwise achromatic showing. The models all had side-wept hair that paired perfectly with their red lips. The Armani Prive Fall 2013 collection was an excellent demonstration that color does not always need to be present in order to have a fabulous runway.
