Vivienne Westwood crafted 53 looks of crazy couture for the Vivienne Westwood Spring/Sumer '16 collection. Inspired by Venice and her own carnival-esque aesthetic.
Focusing on daywear, this collection features simple silhouettes refashioned with exaggerated detail. Tailored suits are oversized while trousers are cinched to appear far smaller than usual. Elongated coats are given a wild remix and an abnormally huge silhouette whereas an evening gown is riddled with sequin and made to look like a very fancy body cage. Among the wild pieces, the Vivienne Westwood Spring/Summer '16 collection also offers floral dresses and denim jackets as well as edgy swimwear.
The Vivienne Westwood Spring/Summer '16 collection brings all the theatrics of an Italian carnival to fashion fans worldwide.
