This is the essence of the Strenesse Blue Collection for Spring/Summer 2013: Who we want to be, what we will do to achieve it, which dreams we will bring to fruition.

Layered looks of boxy severity on the surface, yet melting into emotion in the soft, flowing fabrics underneath or in a startling flash of colour-blocked lilac. Nothing to constrict or curb – just space to dream and feel: Oversized sweater tops a silk tunic, a cropped slim-cut blazer creates feminine lines over a long, flowing silk top and wide cotton pants.

Tender, dreamy shades of white are teamed; blues from Midnight to Pacific with a touch of pale Lilac, seersucker blazers and girly dresses in Habotai silk or cotton/wool.

As multifaceted as dreams themselves: endless, free and full of rich opportunity.
