The Mugler Fall 2013 ready-to-wear collection is a triumph in fit and finish. Lead designer Nicola Formichetti understands the female figure and the distortion of fabrics. He attempts to accentuate silhouettes by adding texture, volume and playing with draping. The color palette for this collection was muted with refreshing pops of pastel.
The Mugler ready-to-wear collection is polished, sophisticated and full of new and inventive forms. Highlights from the exquisite series include a light purple skirt suit adorned with furry orange panels, a sculptural mini dress with ornate detailing, glossy black pants paired with a voluminous turtleneck and a high-collar vest. A must-purchase off the runway is the stunning strapless gown with a sweetheart neckline.
The Mugler Fall 2013 collection is fierce and pushes the boundaries of contemporary ready-to-wear fashions.
