Angels in the Night: Armani Privé Haute Couture SS10.

Giorgio Armani carries their audience to a place a wondrous place and puts a woman in contact with her dark side. And even if dark side tends to be synonymous for obscure and mystical terms, Armani opens our minds and clears us of all those meanings. The red thread is a bit unnoticeable at first yet as every design goes by, it is clear to see that common theme. Night. A dark yet light moment.

Each piece that glides by is reminiscent of the stars and the moon. Armani catches a glimpse of luminescence as their gowns and suits play with curves creating the moon-effect in different shapes and sizes and it's that exact play on curves that is intriguing. Not only is it a modernistic design as the shoulders lash out, unusual slits are presented and body contour lines are redefined, but it's sensual as well. Notice the word sensual as in seductive and not in sexy. Sensual because it does not cross that line into something of tacky nature as it maintains its pure nature. Such is the case as in many of the necklines as they plunge down into an elegant manner instead of something ála Versace worn by J.Lo for the Grammy's in 2000. No, this is something that remains a bit more innocent and most of all, elegant. It's this same elegance that is carried throughout the show that makes for the nocturnal fantasy. The materials used dream their way through the collection as the shining appearance only embraces the night feeling even more and makes each piece shine like small stars. Some of the materials though seemed a bit unusual as some of the gowns appear to be made of bubble wrap material. Still, overlooking that, the overall outcome does succeed and even the jewelry that could seem childish used in other contexts, suits in perfectly making it the simple cherry on top on a well-carried out theme without being too focused on that one subject. Our favorite highlight? Well, what is more delicate to live inside a bubble. You tell us. Genius.
