Spring/Summer 2012

Modern Appeal, New Colour Intensity!
 

'Make life easier for women' is SEM PER LEI?s motto. An Italian feel projects relaxed looks that softly play around the body paired with feminine sportiness. Sabine Lohèl, Head of Design, advocates this unique styling confirming: 'Colour is clearly a focus wonderfully contrasting with natural shades full of character such as shell, olive, taupe and bone white. SEM PER LEI is synonymous with high value, understatement and cross dressing. Knits are our core competence: exuding the spirit of the times exquisite fabrics and even butter-soft leather are used in the collection. Each garment is a protagonist of value and consistent design.'

Three themes pinpoint the new lines and colours for Spring/Summer 2012. FRESH symbolises fresh colour schemes in blue shades or radiant Indian pink all the way down to mottled silver. Navy with bone white is the favourite combo. Styles toy with sporty and feminine elements in a light-at-heart and flowing manner. Casual top-pleat chino pants or flared trousers with high-sitting waistlines find multi-faceted partners in pullovers and jackets. Highlights include tambour appliqués featuring denim prints and hand-crafted crochet dresses. SENSUAL stresses neutrals like shell, taupe and olive that create exciting contrasts with tangerine and carmine. Linen knits put zebra intarsia centrestage while Italian designs bring about feminine summer dresses with matching, long jackets. A lamé floral print exudes a summer feel. Lace and jersey form a new duo strikingly decorated with piping and diamante chains. City shorts and cross-embroidered cargo pants and sheath dresses with a corsage cut interpret this new style. Leather gives rise to butter-soft bomber jackets, suede to sexy dresses and skirts. New here is the ?colour liaison? of olive and red. SPARKLING interprets summer as cool linen. Airy dresses sparkle with shiny platelets and playful details. Shirts and tunics in linen, fluffy batiste or rayon with lace get you in the mood for summer. The must-have of the season: gold-buttoned club blazers with an aristocratic finish!
