'11 FW Gabriele Colangelo

2011 Fall/Winter
Gabriele Colangelo

Colangelo learned to experiment with fabrics from his furrier father. And he put his dad's skills to good use in this collection, cutting sheared astrakhan into remarkably lightweight coats. These came in deep, saturated hues that also deserve a call-out. The last one to hit the runway appeared to be copper-leafed in jagged, asymmetrical strips running diagonally across the body. Again, it could've been tricky, but the designer has a light touch. It's safe to say that in a season positively swathed in fur, that coat didn't look like anybody else's.
