Geometry, proportion and fashion come together more than ever in a sublime balance in the Maison Rabih Kayrouz Resort 2017 collection. Clean lines, neon colors, poplin and satin, oversized pockets, powerful points of impact, perfectly tied knots in sculptural bows, exposed shoulders, minimalist folds all give the feeling of an art exhibition in motion.
The designer took inspiration from the functionality of uniforms. Simple shapes and different techniques led to a feminine and utilitarian collection for every modern fashionista who also wants to feel comfortable wearing exquisite clothes. "All of a sudden, the same item of clothing has two different functions," Rabih Kayrouz explains his Maison Rabih Kayrouz Resort 2017 collection.
