Entitled 'Black Gold Kings', the Krizia Robustella Fall/Winter 2013 collection embraces luxury and excess. This eccentric runway show explores urban stereotypes adorning its garments with graphic pop culture iconography.
From gleaming dollar sign embellishments and Mercedes Benz hood ornament pendants to jungle animal accessories, models channel urban dwellers with a taste for everything over-the-top.
Exuding a strong street sensibility, the Krizia Robustella Fall/Winter 2013 collection references traditionally athletic silhouettes and urban imagery, mixing the two to create the designer's signature brand of "Sport Deluxe". Paying homage to Arabic Sheik attire and the world of hip-hop, Robustella successfully marries comfort with luxury in a collection that is versatile, wearable and excessively adorned.
