I just love Philip Stephens, and this Fall 09 collection of UNCONDITIONAL luxury basics proves why. Warm, fun and tough-cool, this label does not disappoint.
Stephens created a look with a strong silhouette with funnel necks that displayed his need to cocoon, protect and exude confidence. Fine cashmeres, leathers, merino wool and fine silk and cottons in black, white, grey and splashes of orange or yellow were interspersed with rugged zippers and tough boots.
A slim purple velvet jumpsuit was my fave pick, along with the strong lines of the menswear tuxes and trench coats lending a sophisticated aura.
ALDO boots and heels were rugged and fierce, adding to the confidence of the collection.
The UNCONDITIONAL show was set in a relaxed atmosphere high above the city, where models and fans alike mingled on a Sunday afternoon, but you never forgot you were seeing some sexy history being made.
