French Fashion made easy

Malta Independent Saturday, 9 February 2008, 00:00 Last update: about 14 years ago

It’s back again with a promise – short of saying ‘you ain’t seen nothing yet!’, La Redoute this season promises that you haven’t finished playing about with fashion yet. And a glimpse through the latest bumper catalogue with all the juiciest fashions for Spring/Summer 2008, proves this.

Fun is what it’s all about, starting from the repeat guest appearance of famous French fashion guru Christian Lacroix who heralds all the works. And one step forward brings us into all one can dream of – fashion wear, city wear, glamour wear, lingerie. Brand names which complement the staple La Redoute Creation and La Redoute Essentials come in a string - mellow yellow, maje, ba&sh, Anyes Gallici, Active Wear, Edeis, Roxy, Ventilo, Cacharel….

Radiant colours are back in with a bang. Highly tempered with a strong presence of white, clothes on show welcome you to play about with the homely warmth of red, turquoise, plum, purple and a troop of soft colours that are reminiscent of the army but not quite. Black is also a favourite, mostly adorned with bold graphic patterns that flirt with whites. Whether you’re 20, 40, 60, a teen or expecting… something is in there to catch your attention. While you’re at it, check out the shoes which are all about flats, tapered strong heels and nothing much in between.

A startlingly wide range of lingerie provides something for every taste, size and body shape and then…. in comes the sea with a beautiful diversity of designer swimwear. Tops and bottoms come in a radiating range that is diverse in design and style. Flowers, polka dots, strips and blocks of colour will complement your body whether you are tanned or not.

If you’re on the slightly larger size category, you needn’t flip through the catalogue in a frenzy of frustration. La Redoute has provided an innovation that brings along a whole range just for you – Taillissime, which can be accessed online for a host of styles in super-comfort and of super-fashionable wearability.

On to male fashion - the tough guy element is softened up by some delicate colours on shirts and light sweaters – soft pinks, lilacs, baby blues, light greens. It’s all about being cool… the French way.

And then of course, you must ooh and aaah your way through the baby and kid section; get itching over the gorgeous bed linens, curtains and home features and take advantage of any of the varied special offers, free gifts, competitions….
