Jean Louis Sabaji Limbs Fall-Winter 2016 Collection

"Autumn marks the transition from colourful gardens filled with flowers to the shredding of leaves from deciduous trees.
Jean Louis Sabaji reveals his Fall-Winter 15-16 Collection “Limbs”. A blowout of this fall forest which he stripped down from all elements leaving only the branches, as he tells his story differently this time without the floral theme that usually inspires him.

The woman is protected by embellished limbs as she is the only precious flower of the collection.

The woods never looked this adorned, filled with an infinite variety of shapes and volumes, Jean Louis Sabaji reinterprets interlaced branches as he experiments with fabrics, from silk, to satin, tulle and shantung.
Harmoniously blending the different textiles to create alluring textures.

The Colour palette reflects the opulence of a forest with only two colours appearing throughout the collection. White is a neutral color that’s associated with successful beginning to accentuate the purity of a naked Nature. Gold; cousin of Brown, the branches’s usual color; enhances wealth, grandeur, prosperity and glamour which are major characteristics in Couture.

Exaggerated volumes of limbs run through twelve statement pieces on fitted silhouettes to enhance the woman’s curves while preserving her."
