Shot by Bec Parsons in some lavish interior of Sydney, the book stars model-of-the-moment Nicole Pollard in a slew of opulent outfits that make floaty dresses and thongs seem like seriously ill-considered holiday choices. Heavy metallics, glossy taffeta, and a shiny coated snakeskin are used to excellent effect in cleanly structured dresses and separates, with silhouettes which are so reminiscent of ritzy île-de-France lodgings.
All those heavy textures and Dello Russo embellishments are made appropriate for normal life with clean tailoring. Stand-out pieces include a taffeta suit in shiny duck egg blue that doesn’t look at all like your high school prom dress got a sex change, and anything bearing that aforementioned print of magnified jewellery clusters. This opulent collection is further affirmation of the gap between the sibling designers’ C&M diffusion and their luxe mainline, and why we’re still willing to make some ill-considered financial decisions to own a piece of the latter.
