Alberta Ferretti apparently decided that a change in the way her runway models' hair was styled would do some good for the unveiling of her Spring/Summer 2007 Ready to Wear collection, and rightfully so. Stylist Orlando Pita explained "that the hair at Alberta Ferretti this time is down, which is different for her, and it has a lot of volume, but we're creating that with crimping the hair first and then we're curling it so it's creating volume without tease(think mid-'80s to mid '90s big hair) so it's light and easy rather than being too stiff." I say that he did a great job with it and now I might go out and purchase a hair crimper now because I already have a curling iron. The makeup the runway models are wearing is very light and shimmery, with the eye makeup being shimmery and sparkly. The lips and cheeks are sheer, the cheeks are a light pink(light pink blush). The goal was to give them a light, glowing look. Ms. Feretti's collection is very beautiful, using a variety of light flowy fabrics in a variety of colors. The main color of the pants and the cropped pants appears to be white, which seems to be the color of the moment, for those of you who watched the entire Golden Globes ceremony on Monday night would already know if you saw the color of the dresses worn by the actresses. She also has put in the color silver in her collection as well, as evidenced by the flowy (silky?) jumpsuit that was worn by one of the models as well as a dress. I've seen some dark colors such as blue, maroon, purple mixed in with some neutral colors and pastels. Some clothes are topped off with some sparkly embellishments which is still tres chic for now(probably won't last though), however it's only noticed when light reflects off of it; it's there, but it's also subtle. NOT TACKY! Her clothes, which are evening clothes mainly, are feminine and elegant. And as the editrix of Italian Vogue notes, she has always gone towards the elegant and feminine side even when the sexy look was fashionable in Italy. Well said, mainly because I agree.
