Harryhalim presents a collection for the Autumn-Winter 2011/12 season that takes us right to the heart of its surprisingly tender, melancholy universe. As in Charles Baudelaire’s L’invitation au voyage, “Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté, Luxe, calme et volupté.”
The designer sublimates the romanticism of autumn brown and the sophisticated chic of winter black with shimmering materials and the light, feminine caress of elegantly draped dresses, capes and pants that seem to dance with the slightest movement.
In a glamorous atmosphere, fluid materials are precisely structured in a textile marriage of the most poetic colors.
And it’s with bewitching eroticism that the female body is covered in architectural volumes and stripped bare in indented fabrics.
We can’t remain insensitive to the savage way in which touches of fur and skins bring the garments to life in a skilful contrast of lines and curves.
As for the man, more discreet, he appears virile and masculine with surprising finesse and fragility.
