Architectural
Silhouettes Meet Rich Textures in the Judith
& Charles Fall 2014 Collection
Canadian womenswear brand Judith & Charles is pleased to unveil its latest
Fall 2014 collection. Inspired by strong urban architecture set against nature’s
softened textures and colour palette, this season offers an array of inspiring
pieces to discover.
Continuing to draw
artistic inspiration from high quality fabrics and innovative textures, this
collection introduces tonal jacquard, cloque and bonded jersey. The season also
features luxury fabrics such as alpaca, cashmere, silk and pony hair, impeccably
finishing the collection’s key outerwear pieces, along with opulent staples such
as silk and a wealth of leather, both sourced directly from Italy by founders
Judith Richardson and Charles Le Pierrès.
Sophisticated
tailoring generates silhouettes that call to mind classic couture contours,
boasting round shoulders and peplums. Other styles found in the collection
include polished shift dresses, mock turtlenecks and hounds-tooth motifs, all
traceable to 1960s mod influences.
A refreshing
monochromatic palette of winter-white, black, and grey is a hallmark of the
brand’s minimalistic approach to styling. Touches of rich pomegranate, Baltic
blue and the introduction of pale haze, a serene smokey lilac hue, add subtle
femininity to the collection’s muted palette.
This season,
Creative Director Judith Richardson drew inspiration in part from architectural
influences with geometric lines apparent within the contours of each style.
Horizontal lines appear woven through ombré monochromatic sweaters, tweed
bouclé, and Prince de Galles plaid, while modern cuts and angles evoke city
skylines throughout the collection’s design.
Signaling the
maturity and sleek creations the brand is renowned for, each style may be worn
to meetings, evenings dining out with friends, and just as easily packable for
trips out of the city. This season Judith & Charles introduces a new stable
of versatile, fundamental pieces envisioned and beautifully executed with the
modern woman in mind.
