Ocean travel and colour

Known for minimal use of colour, Wendell Rodricks surprised with his Ocean Travels collection this fashion week. Besides the regular easy lines and cuts that fell like smooth water, the designer played with colours, but very subtly. Ranging from blues to pale yellows and an occasional salmon pink, Rodricks, this season, was all about linen, satin and shimmer. While shimmer broke the predictability, the colour added the right twist to the collection. The collection breathed the ease of the ocean – as the name suggests – and fell in a smooth unfettered flow.
