Each fashion season,
I eagerly await the Milan shows
and more specifically, the new collection from Italian / Haitan desiger
Her fearless colour and print mismatch,
often inspired by a particular cultural focus-
generates creation of joyful clothing.

patterns in linear configuration
a staple of red / blue hues
an abundance of colour scope
pom pom / staw fringe details

In addition to geographical notes,
Ms. Jean keeps things interesting in mention of various fashion eras:
from ’50s flair to a current on-trend nod-
à la the bomber jacket.
