Moschino Cheap & Chic: Designer at Work
http://www.FTV.com/videos MILAN - Models are dancing and being silly as they await their final walkthrough and rehearsal at the Moschino Cheap & Chic show for Fall/Winter 2011/2012. According to Rosella Jardini, the Moschino Cheap & Chic show showcases the four fashion capitals of the world--Milan, Paris, New York, and London. For Milan, the outfits are middle class, beige, camel colors, but with bursts of gold sequins, because as Jardini describes it, "the city lives, even under camel colors." London is "obviously" red, black, tartan, and tradition. Paris is bourgeois and provocative, because "Paris women are like this." Finally, New York is multiracial, cosmopolitan, diverse, and unique. Stand out in the series are the dresses with landmarks imprinted on them in a cartoonish logo of the city they showcase. One sees an iconic British red telephone booth for London, the Statue of Liberty for New York and the Eiffel Tower for Paris.
