Trendology: Krizia RTW Fall 2010

Information from WWD told the inspiration of this collection by Krizia is from the Aeolian amphorae preserved at the archeological museum of Lipari. I found that is a very odd but interesting way to put fashion in, and to create a collection from it on the runway. While I was wondering what does Aeolian amphorae mean, Mariuccia gave it a definition on the runway - curves. I am surprised on how rounds and curves are applied in the collection, such as shoulders curves, rounded-out pants, rounded cocktail dresses and huge ruffled collars.  Besides the curves, there are also colour and fringes; shocking pink, orange, neon yellow, red and blue.  All the colours are contrasting with the earthy tone and blacks in the collection, which makes certain pieces so standout that you will not forget once you've seen them.  While inspiration from an archeological museum could means an ancient style collection, but I personally find it somewhat futuristic.
