All I can think about when I look at Sessùn’s S/S13 collection is planning a trip down to the South of France, or the Amalfi coast. It must be something about all the blues and pastels, that reminds me of Nice or Marseilles, and I want to be there – eating gelato while I watch old leathery looking people get unhealthily tanned.
It helps knowing that Sessùn’s creator, and designer, Emma François, is a notorious traveller, who takes inspiration from places she’s visited for her fabrics and designs.
But, this lookbook, more than any other – with it’s soft focus and ice cream shades – makes me want to be on a beach somewhere, where the water is unrealistically blue, and the sun is so hot I have to duck into air conditioned shops to cool off.
