The Creature of Comfort Spring 2014 collection was filled with classic Mediterranean must-haves. The collection was filled with neutral shades, relaxed silhouettes and chambray separates.
This simple, airy collection – fashioned primarily out of crisp, Japanese and Italian cottons – will have you looking cool as a cucumber even in the direst of heat waves. Models walked the runways in tunic shirt-dresses, flirty polka-dot patterns and wrap-around knotted skirts and dresses. The wide-brimmed hats that accessorized the ensembles offer extra shade and protection from UV rays.
Jade Lai paid tribute to the gaggle of girls who Cabana-hopped in the 60s with these minimalist island designs. I don’t know about you, but I’m ready to take off for the South of France armed with these appropriately comfy pieces from the Creature of Comfort Spring 2014 collection.
