“Our caravan is our family, and the world is our family,” read the show notes at Sophie Theallet‘s Roma-themed show. But, don’t expect this Alaïa disciple to trade in her second-skin dresses for loose layers just yet. Theallet wove in gypsy references like frills, black lace, and exuberant jacquards into her sleek and sexy silhouettes: a magenta-edged ruffle that snaked up a fitted chocolate leather shift, say, or a Spanish-flavored black lace halter worn with leather-trimmed trousers. Trends: black lace, ruffles, brocade, pattern-mixing
Instaworthy: the clingy gold Oscar-worthy gowns that closed the show.
