Again a fantastic minimal traditional couture effect, with the purity, the elitism, the craftsmanship and artistic. Here, there was the beauty parlor/spa scenario that opened the show, with the signature Jil Sander white poplin shirt. The show closed with another passage of white that reflected Simons’ longtime fascination with the female rituals associated with marriage

There’s something endearing, almost naïve, in such a question when it’s attached to a label as quintessentially sophisticated as Jil Sander, but that is what Simons has brought to the brand: a deeply inquisitive, wide-eyed open-mindedness that has allowed him to insinuate his own passions into the Sander lexicon. "The icon of modernism," Simons called him, yes he got inspired by Picasso. But the visuals were also an elementary cue for the mid-century modern spirit that was the foundation of the collection. The lean, tailored, below-the-knee lines of Simons’ dresses were all about complete mastery of his métier, the same quality you’d recognize in a couturier, an architect, an artist. But these are clothes we’re talking about, after all, so there were color, texture, and patterns, too. Gingham and paisley, in fact. Just about as trad as they come.

We can see an approach of these modern women towards the optimism about the future. Simmons confirms about this optimism impact and lets see if this continues in the next chapter of his collection.
