Laundry by Shelli Segal Spring 10 takes a tour through Italy, capturing the colors of the Etruscan sky from Tuscany to Capri. Pack your perfect Laundry dress, patent leather sandals, scarves and oversized sunglasses, and escape the winter grays for a fresh splash of azure blues, soft lilacs, tangerines and canary yellows.
February embarks in Tuscany, where graphic lilac floral prints take inspiration from the lavender and cypress fields of the countryside. For day, the abstract ombre floral boat neck dress with three-quarter sleeves in rich emeralds, lilacs and glass blues offers a fresh take on the classic floral. And the butterfly skies tunic in lilac also offers a modern graphic interpretation with shorter hemline and cape sleeve. For evening, the butterfly skies print takes new shape in an elegant strapless gown – perfect for cocktails at sunset. And for a night dancing on the coast – the one sleeve disco dress with studded waist or silver sequin shift will sparkle until the morning sun.
March travels further south to take a Roman holiday with rich tangerines, inkblot blues, and crisp white eyelets, reflecting the colors of the Borghese Palace. For day, the tangerine jacquard shift with embellished neckline reveals 60’s glamour, and eyelet long sleeve shift is feminine and airy, with full balloon sleeve and flirty hemline. The drawstring shirtdress is an easy, clean statement that is fresh and confident. And for dining on the Via Veneto, the colorful animal print halter dress in tangerine revisits 80s glamour.
April lands at the ideal Italian destination: Capri. Where 60’s glamour of Grace Kelly is the star in "High Society”. Step out in style in the double-breasted strapless cotton pique dress in canary yellow, mod block print A-line dress with zipper detail, chambray one-shoulder romper and silk strapless button down romper, or retro knit stripe mini, all perfect for Italy beach chic. Back by popular demand, a great placed print dress is offered for Spring 10 – this season’s take is an Italianate inspired trellis print in emerald and canary. For evening, the classic matte jersey one-shoulder cut-out dress is modern glamour defined. And the showstopper of the season – our laser cut tiered mini cocktail dress with center zip in canary yellow finishes the Italian holiday in unforgettable fashion.
