Elegance is expressed with an oxymoron: new vintage

The new Trussardi 1911 Fall/Winter 2010-2011 Women’s Collection inspired by French chic of the early seventies.

Silhouettes bring to mind the black & white photos of Jeanloup Sieff and David Bailey and icons of style such as Romy Schneider, Jane Birkin and Catherine Deneuve. Classic pieces are updated. Thanks to the maison’s nearly century of expertise, everything is mixed, layered, and reinvented, inspired by a passion for Prince of Wales and Pied-de-Poule prints. These two patterns dominate cropped vis-a-vis jackets in boucle wool and Lurex or in tweed. They also line leather, have denim inserts, or are decorated with contrasting fringed wool trim that is even woven through chain shoulder straps on handbags with the same pattern.

Milan Vukmirovic brings back the French tradition of the robe-manteau, the coat dress, that now comes in wool and Lurex and features a zipper leitmotif that reveals unique necklines and slits. The coat dress even comes in a fitted light sheepskin version with a sexy center zipper that also triumphs on booties and bags. Booties have boucle? wool applique?s and are decorated with metal chains woven with fabric or fur. Boots, pumps, and low boots come in matelasse? material, and ankle boots have a bustier-like frontlet.

“Fur combined with leather, crystals for your feet and bags you will fall in love with. Hot shots of the new Trussardi’s collection.”
