PS17
PASKAL Pre-Spring 2017 collection is inspired by the multifaceted feeling of first love. Julie Paskal captures the intimate transition moment when childhood dreams face desperation and ennui. This controversial moment, full of mood diversity, leads Julie Paskal to choose asymmetry and contrast as her main tools for creating the collection. Soft cotton is mixed with structural satin, becoming the primary combination in skirts, dresses, and tops. Light, semi-transparent floral organza embodies naturalness, a feeling of lightness, and simplicity. The collection culminates in structured laser-cut floral dresses and fluorescent coats. The color palette of the collection is contrasting — soft white, blue, and nude are mixed with solid acid orange and pink. Romance and the feeling of first love are embodied in the typical PASKAL fit & flare silhouettes and lavish decor in the form of frills and ruffles.
Julie Paskal decodes the flower symbol as a symbol of love and life. The flower becomes a manifesto of life and its changing nature. Because after all, everything is born to blossom.
