Laid-Back Couture Collections

Missoni Fall 2013 Line Proves that Comfort can be Stylish

A Neon green and grey color palette with a laid-back vibe stole the show at the Missoni Fall 2013 collection. The Italian fashion house headed by Angela Missoni chose to go for more sporty and relaxed looks this time around. Punchy neon greens were matched with more subdued charcoals and lighter grays.

The chosen silhouette of the garments had more creative flavor mixed in with more classic touches including mod dresses. The brands iconic zig-zag pattern was reinvented to match a more fresh and vibrant perspective in an intriguing way as can be seen on many of the dresses. Though the garments of the Missoni Fall 2013 collection were mainly made up of lounge wear elements, there were still accents that gave it a more sexy vibe.
