Pucci 2013

Emilio Pucci Resort 2013 by Peter Dundas

Pucci 2013

The Pucci girl is going on safari for Resort 2013, and bringing with her a classic, sportswear approach to dressing. With nods to late 1960’s era Veruschka and 70’s Lauren Hutton, this wanderlust excursion ventures into the future with new techniques and reworked silhouettes.Yesteryear’s naive bohemian has yielded to a powerful cosmopolitan spirit. Dundas’ looks are sharp edged and urban cool, yet grounded in the earthy and elemental with colors of military khaki, black, and navy laced with sunflower yellow, lotus, begonia, and hydrangea green.The Pucci girl’s re-contextualized travel adventure kicks off with Army/Navy issue safari jackets, trousers, and shirtdresses done up in crisp tailored cotton or soft suede
. Many pieces are embellished with intricate floral and Asian embroidery motifs, a nod to the 90’s when customizing military surplus finds was all the rage.

The collection subtly balances masculine and feminine; a gauzy silk caftan in olive khaki is lushly adorned with gold threaded dragon and butterfly embroidery and cinched with a stiff grosgrain weave military belt – an accessory that is applied throughout the wardrobe as a transformative staple. A structured butter colored day dress employs a horizontal lapel-like panel at the waist to add definition and movement around the hip.

The technical feel of military undergarments appears as fine lingerie netting – obscuring the décolletage behind the keyhole opening of a black silk evening dress or as a camisole tucked under tuxedo jackets, outerwear, and luxuriant pant suits
