Part hippie dips, part street utility, all of the collection was immaculately crafted with classic Aeffe know-how.

The quote Alberta Ferretti provided in her show notes explaining her spring collection was so abstract and out of touch with what went down on the runway, it feels useless to reprint it here. But the gist was: soft, naïve clothes as a metaphor for women understanding themselves in today’s world. Far more concrete and clear was Ferretti’s obvious play for a more casual, perhaps contemporary customer.
