Description
Straight out of the 80s, this bright lime green Christian Lacroix set is, to say the least, a statement. All the exuberance of Designer Christian Lacroix can be boiled down to this piece: massive puffy sleeves, bright colours, shiny ornemental buttons.
Pair them together for an extravagant 80s look or separately to add a playful splash of colour to a more casual look .
About the designer
opened his eponym couture house in 1987. From the start, the couturier imposes his style, fruit of diverse inspirations and traditions such as the corset and the crinoline. He is known for his use of colours, ornaments, embroidery and pattern mixes. From 1992 and onward, the style becomes cleaner and refined, making Christian Lacroix's designs into collector pieces
