The Retro English style of this theme is evoked by muted tones, luminous camel, greenish-blues, taupey-gray, rich burgundy. Add cupcake pink, acid marmalade, electric anise, milky blueberry.
Noble materials and traditional men's wardrobe codes ( jacket for example) are feminised : recolored tweeds, marled wools, Prince of Wales knittings etc.
A certain form of opulence is favored with an ornamental style ( jewellery), tapestry style (exuberant motifs) , precious weaves (silk twill, lame voile).
Finally very basic "chino" cottons and raw denim. Sumptuous colors with patinated velvet shades: violet, brick red, ochre, Prussian and faded blue. For bases, revolutionary inspiration with red and bronze alongside dark gray. Reworked shabby baroque mood: 18th century upholstery, tapestry and brocade motifs are enlarged, recolored and covered in lines and stains.
Parade mood illustrated by tone-on-tone crests and braids or old gold embroideries. Circus stars style and polka dot motifs, colourful club stripes... a delirious register: lively jacquards, tartan plaids with tie prints and reworked paisleys. Neo-military style, baggy chic spirit, Perfecto circus, barocco prints |
