The Virdi-anne 2009 Fall/Winter Collection

With a strong conceptual aspect behind this season’s collection, The Virdi-anne revolves around the theme of metamorphosis and change within a chrysalis. As the world faces tumultuous times, the complex approach to the collection captures, as The Virdi-anne designer puts it, “an intention to remain discreet and undercover rather than showy and in your face. It represents protection and defense, self-camouflage and mystery. It is difficult to find and therefore rare and unusual. It outwardly resembles dark armor and stillness but within lays softness and intelligent activity.” The looks mix well-fitted tops with stacked bottoms, featuring a solid array of different pieces in a muted palette.
