For Pre-Fall, the design team at Pucci tapped into the label’s playful spirit, infusing the collection with an energetic vibe. The focus was on an everyday wardrobe, whose abbreviated and dynamic silhouettes had a ’60s flair, elevated by modern athletic accents.
The sporty references were well in evidence in a series of layered ribbed T-shirts in sherbet colors, worn with glossy vinyl miniskirts in fresh hues of aqua, strawberry pink, and tangerine for a touch of quirk. Elsewhere, the vinyl minis were paired with elegant, billowy poet-sleeved printed blouses, while a long plissé circle skirt boasted new Pucci motifs, embroidered all over with sparkling sequins. Rather glamorous were the one-shouldered, finely pleated, sequined evening dresses, which could be paired with lacquered shearling peacoats or generous wrap coats in hues of turquoise or lavender. Shearling peacoats and wraps were also shown worn over printed velvet midi tunics with matching palazzo pants for a cool, layered pajama effect.
Pucci wouldn’t be Pucci without its electrifying prints; for Pre-Fall they were proposed in pyrotechnic new iterations suggestively called Vallauris, Fortuna, Mirabilis, and Burle. The prints added a sense of effortless fun to a series of otherwise minimal ’90s-inspired dresses.
