Childlike innocence is a theme that is toyed with in the Marni Spring 2012 collection. Fusing demure fashions with bright colors and graphic prints, the show was both carelessly chic and precisely put together.
For instance, lean organza underskirts were paired underneath A-line skirts, suggesting a "just rolled out of bed" look that was still somehow perfectly poised in a way that only Marni can pull off.
The Marni Spring 2012 collection was clean and crisp, but still wearable and not stiff at all. Sheath dresses were the silhouette of choice, ensuring that designer Consuelo Castiglioni was presenting to the modern woman who wanted to add a punch of color to her wardrobe without necessarily having to indulge in the neon prints that are so prevalent this season.
Like every Marni collection in recent memory, the Spring 2012 show demonstrated easy, sensual style that is accessible to the everyday woman.
