RUNWAY: Canali SS15

Andrea Pompilio returns to the runway after his eponymous collection to present Canali's Spring/Summer 2015 collection. Pompilio's first collection for the venerable Italian label played up the designer's penchant for youthful clothes and pattern but the result was decidedly more somber and conservative. For example, take chunky horizontal stripes that were seen on silky pants or polka dots that made a cameo on a suit. Whether this collection is a brief introduction to a new direction for Canali is to be scene but judging from this alone, fans of the label might be shocked to see so many sport-y clothes on the shelves.
