FACE OF NATIONS
Spring/Summer 2018 Collection

A face etched by a multiethnic collage, a look that speaks myriad languages, but which belongs to just one photograph, a daughter of multiculturalism. Face of Nations is a story of journeys and experiences, a portrait of freedom and independence, a melting pot containing just one ingredient: the world. Afro Beat in the City is a free, unconfined way to mix influences of African folk culture with the revolutionary avant-garde of the twentieth-century West. All in the name of freedom of expression against all stereotypes.

An impression of swing, rhythm and sound that resonate in iconic Coccinelle creations such as Ambrine and Arlettis, conveyed in unexpected materials and colours. Rattan, ethnic patterns, bold fastenings, zig zags, prints and embroidery blend just like on an imaginary totem pole. Materiality and craftsmanship merge, transforming every bag into a decorative self-statement of style and identity.

Frais et spontané boast gentler somatic traits, drawing inspiration from distant lands with more delicate undertones, the subtle shades of wild flowers and the freshness of meadow dew. Colours, nuances and prints offer a gentle, unexpected femininity and lightness, both authentic and contemporary. An air of romanticism barely implied by pastel suedes and two-tone lace details. Coccinelle steps out of the leather comfort zone, dabbling in new materials, using textiles and rattan, aspiring to become a mini urban picnic hamper for the city. And to finish, a fruit print with its very own childishness makes the range yet more ironic and sophisticated, embellishing sport nylon as much as the entire accessories range in the form of scarves, jewellery and hats.

It’s all about women. Everything begins with the two women who now head up Coccinelle’s creative team. All of their designs have function before form, fulfilling a modern woman’s wants and needs. Every bag holds every women’s emotions.

Coccinelle is available in Rustan’s.

LUNA Spring Summer 2018 Collection

This Summer 2018, LUNA presents a mixed palette of soft muted pastel colors and summer brights all in a playful, feminine collection inspired by nature’s floral landscapes. 

Though keeping the brand’s signature silhouettes, shorter versions of the caftan and playful prints make an introduction this season for a more youthful touch to the clothes. Subtle details like curved hems, gathers and drawstrings are all about comfort and ease.  These pieces exude the relaxed and quite confidence of the new LUNA woman.

LUNA is exclusively available in Rustan’s.
