Evoking the belle vie on the Riviera, Façonnable’s new lifestyle Cruise collection is fun, fresh and full of new creations. This collection embodies both youthfulness and sophistication of the Côte d’Azur thus combining practicality with luxury and elegant style.The Collection is easy to wear, comfortable and refined, keeping the real essence of Façonnable at its heart thanks to its the unique cuts, the use of the best textiles and the special mix of colors. In sync with the warm, fresh climate of a Riviera spring, the collection covers the entire spectrum, working with blocks of revitalizing bright or more natural tones, with complimentary colors, often working together or sharply contrasting in the same piece.
Chic and distinctive, the hallmarks of Cruise for men are jackets. Short, functional, lightweight and supremely stylish, they are distinguished by their key features. Made of velvety soft wafer thin mix of silk, cotton and cashmere, they are available as a v-neck, a round collar, a polo sweater or as a hooded cardigan. The polo has always been a key menswear piece. In a twist on an all time classic style, Façonnable has produced a selection of polo shirts that play with pure colors each with a pie crest. The detailing is exceptional, the texture is richer and warmer, and the design is more versatile.
The Façonnable woman requires practical pieces that don’t let her down on the style front. There is something reminiscent a young Brigitte Bardot or Jackie O, off duty and enjoying a cruise along the Côte d’Azur : Classic nautical stripes in blue and white on t-shirts and shorts; simple, knitted navy trousers made in the South of France, flattering fitted sweaters and, of course, the little black dress.
In time for next spring, Cruise will be launched in November 2012.
