To this end, this season he drizzled clementine orange and yellow among the cappuccino and panna cotta shades and pulled off the happy Italian trick of designing cosy, androgynous clothes that still threw some feminine curves and gauzy fabrics into the mix. Fuzzy, muted outlines over hard lines and sharp angles.
