ZIMMERMANN
Nicky Zimmermann returns to Paris for the second time, unveiling a dreamy collection both inspired by and featuring the work of Australian painter Rupert Bunny. Rendered in print, the artist’s Impressionist works strike a warm escapism that pairs beautifully with the regal drapery, bustier bodices, and crinoline hems of the romantic occasionwear. Zimmermann also cites Bunny’s portrayals of women in repose as the impetus behind the relaxing spirit that permeates throughout—from the chunky knits and plaid tailoring to the range of denim separates.
The buy: the gown featuring an asymmetric ivory lace bodice and black velvet skirt.
