The big boys were feeling sexy, too. Donatella Versace can always be relied upon to inject some wiggle into fashion’s walk, and for spring she embraced thigh-slits, midriffs, chainmail and latex. Ditto Gucci, whose transparent lace mini dresses, latex bustiers, fishnets-and-suspender-belts and sex-toy accessories explored the “nuances of sensuality” in a blockbuster show in LA. “Seduction, Stripped Down” was the title of Prada’s collection and, true to form, it poked fun at conventional interpretations of allure, exploring corsetry in itchy schoolmarmish wool and offsetting micro hemlines with demure kitten-heels. “We thought of words like elegant – but this feels so old-fashioned,” Prada said in the show notes. Sexy it is.
It should be noted that fashion is finally wising up to the fact that sexy comes in all shapes, skin tones and sizes. About time! Models Precious Lee, Alva Claire, Paloma Elsesser and Yumi Nu were among the most in-demand models for spring, bringing some much-needed body diversity to the runways. Meanwhile Indigenous model Quannah Chasinghorse made a splash in her debut season, walking for everyone from Chanel to Prabal Gurung and Gucci.
