THE ROW Pre Fall 2012

The Olsen twins have a calignosity edge when it comes to portray their style in their designs; but what’s surprising is not the reflection on their creations, is the evolution The Row has past trough this past seasons. A sense of luxe-controlled elegance with an effortless side, is the main direction of their pre-fall 2012 collection. luscious velvet suits, cable knitted turtle necks, fox patched coats and strong surface leather jackets are delivering a playful high note on tailoring execution. Perhaps their effortless touch this time drives into cotton T-shirts , dark denim jeans and gaucho cropped black pants.

Following their button shirts and blouses in light blue and white; colors were juxtaposed with the darkness of blacks and the boldness-mystery of burgundy’s. Accessories play a modern perspective; bold tote bags in hard leather, and fox tails are the perfect complement to balance the opposite concept that plays with the tailored fitted silhouettes and the maxi-malism of some dresses and coats. One of our favorite casual looks from the collection is the black jacket with a not-so exaggerate peplum, alongside with the black leather long-sleeved turtle neck and tailored pants, though decision there’s many offered options that you can just play with them in different ways.

Some pattern as paisley leaves-created in a white shiny embroidered; invaded over some shirts, the hem line of a dress and a pair of wide leg trousers. There seems to be options for everyone, their girl could be uptown and downtown at the same moment, just with a swap, she’ll be ready for everything. Always in the most effortless elegance style.
