If Jeremy Scott could send Moschino into more triumphant levels of
true commercial fashion, his Spring/Summer 2015 collection has some serious
business to answer for!
“HELLO BARBIE!” the words on every honourable guests lips when
opening the invitation to Moschino’s Milan Fashion Week show; a giant plastic
comb meant one thing only, an abundance of platinum blonde, bubblegum pink and
dazzling audience eyes, all predictably reverting back to their five year old
selves.

Scott’s sophomore collection is a devotion to Mattel’s greatest
export, yet it stays completely faithful to Moschino's innovative culture. The Cowgirl Barbie, Workout Barbie, Malibu Barbie, even the 80’s Rodeo
Drive Barbs were translated throughout the 15 minute show. A matter of Perspex
mini skirts and classic pink biker jacket was the first ensemble to set up the
whimsical nature of the show. Although the ultimate object of femininity,
Scott’s pieces were strong with low hemlines, high waists and prominent
shoulders. Take the ‘Totally Moschino’ line. Barbie is fierce and energetic;
her playful personality is alive with lashing of flesh but kept to a tee of
class in the classic stiletto.
As for Work Out Barbie, she play’s nice in loose attire with a
whisp of 80’s chic, fitted and practical – Well sweep me up off the cross
trainer! As we prepare ourselves for the sunny season ahead, there will be some
serious gym envy – and that’s before we even arrive in Malibu! Poolside Barbie
is tropical, citrus yellow and deep blue in an array of block pattern upon
teeny weeny bikini’s – she even has a blow up bag guys! How 90’s is THAT.

By night, Rodeo Drive is planet 80’s. Dresses assembled with
iconic taffeta bow’s, fish tail drops, colossal ruffles and never without
voluminous hair; Moschino will have every Ken crying ‘Barbie, wanna go for a
ride?!’. In the climate of a constant demand for MORE MORE MORE pop culture,
Moschino sells itself as the pinnacle. “She's had every job. She's even been an astronaut.
Barbie basically is the full package - plus she loves an evening dress which is
very important for Moschino."
Jeremy’s message is to loosen up with
Fashion. The endless criticism surrounding Barbie in regards to her impossible
measurements amongst others are simply eliminated when perceiving the buoyant spirit
the collection possesses. Plastic, but so fantastic; every girl can finally
experience the dream of being their very own Barbie.
