The Christophe Lemaire AW12 womenswear collection may be masculine in a minimalist, Eastern-focused way, but there is still an innate femininity to each piece that speaks to actress Diane Keaton's 'Annie Hall' character. The loose layers complement the designer's men's line perfectly, which was shown a month ago. Dark and subtly sullen, the lookbook has an expectant air as though the models are anticipating a grand arrival. They are certainly decked out in their Christophe Lemaire AW12 finest to greet their guest in.
The Christophe Lemaire AW12 collection features 20s-inspired silhouettes that "offer an alphabet of sartorial terms," as abstractly observed by the designer. By doing so, the line allows women to methodically build a complete wardrobe from the ground up with natural, quality pieces.
