The designers also played with material contrasts, adding fur collars to airy toppers and using sturdy yarns for see-through crochet pieces. The show ended with a parade of sheer slip dresses worn over leopard print panties, which sounds sizzling, but overall the show did not produce a roar, but a gentle and pleasing purr. There was an unexpected coziness to the collection in which the idea of bedroom dressing took on a double meaning. Pinstripes aside, the chintz prints, crochets, and chinoiserie embroideries could have all been lifted from grandmother’s house.
