Bouchra Jarrar - Haute Couture Autumn/ Winter 2014/15 Collection

The motorcycle jacket is converted into a luxury version at Bouchra Jarrar's couture collection.Bouchra Jarrar revisits the classics of the ladies’ wardrobe and one element in particular, the motorcycle jacket, which comes back as a central thread, that the designer converts into a luxury and couture version with iridescent tweed or hanging leather. This jacket takes on the look of a dress or a sleeveless shirt, embroidered with feathers and accessorized with a zip or belted to give it a tailed effect. Leather is silky and supple for an ultimate luxury. The hand-made work and the cut remain essential to the designer, with pieces sculpted over the body. The columned trousers made in fluid grey-green satin or powder pink gabardine both hug the silhouette. To this we add dresses hung in tawny muslin which seem to float gracefully around the body. In the cloister of Henry IV’s school, Bouchra Jarrar has proven once again his mastery of proportions through a desirable and urbain wardrobe.
