Peter Dundas has evolved Emilio Pucci into a little more mature and restrained label this pre-Fall collection. By doing so, he is opening up his market to the flamboyant and the quietly confident woman. I particularly admire the first piece pictured - the pink, red, orange and maroon print dress - coupled with the supremely divine knee-high boots reminds me of a 70s hipster ('where and when can I buy these?' is my first response). Also the scarfe adds a sophisticated French/Italian touch. The most important thing Dundas has done in this collection is his matching of tones, colours,  prints and textures. It is a hard thing to pull off - especially the picture of the all-red toned outfit above. I am very impressed with this collection and I hope this is a sign of similar things to come this Fall.
