John Galliano presented in Shanghai his new resort collection for Spring / Summer 2011. Many expected that this collection was inspired by Asia, but it was not, was a entirely parisien collection.
The catwalk showed a lot of pieces inspired by the French New Wave in the ’60s, with floral prints, ruffles, stripes and pastel colours. Mint green, peaches and roses, the colour palette was very feminine and naive.
“I didn’t really want to do ‘China’ at all. Not only because I have done that, but because I didn’t think it was appropriate,” the designer said. “I just thought it would be really fierce, really cool, to present le savoir faire français.” And that he did, with a savvy blend of ready-to-wear and couture. “I was just trying to recapture that excitement that was happening at that time in Paris, which is very similar to what is happening in Shanghai today,” he said.
