FEMININE, CLINICAL, COOL
Milan: Jil Sander brought equal parts femininity, clinical austerity and slouchy cool to her S/S 14 collection, mixing slim tailoring with oversized Bermuda shorts and soft shirting/blouson jacket hybrids tipped in a tonal neon floral. More creative pattern experiments added energy to the presentation with youthful degraded plaids and swirled scribble motifs in stark black and white.— Nina Stotler
