The Autumn-Winter 2020 runway event from Isabel Marant captivated audiences. The Frenchwoman Isabelle Maran recognizes that consistency isn't always our strong suit. Rather than aiming to shock with dramatic reinventions each season, she patiently cultivates an appreciation for bohemian style over time. For this lineup, Maran cherry-picked the finest elements of the 1980s, steering clear of tackiness, voluminous hairstyles, and heavy cosmetics. Recall the scene from the movie 'Business Woman' where Tess Mack Gill removes her oversized jewelry, cleans off her smoky eye makeup, sneaks into her superior's closet, and dons refined minimalist suits and glittering gowns.
This reimagined eighties aesthetic certainly resonates with us. Within the Autumn-Winter 2020 line, Isabelle achieves an ideal equilibrium between masculine and feminine, power and gentleness, simplicity and ruggedness, leather and floral motifs. The looks are so precisely 'edited' that their real-world application is immediately clear. For the office, a tailored suit in damp-concrete gray; for errands, a soft cream sweater or poncho; for an evening out, a mini-dress with exaggerated shoulders.
