Mexican Memoirs

Summer 2010 Mac Millan present an intoxicating array of digitally printed silk dresses and separates inspired by designer Jane McMillan's travels throughout Asia and Mexico.

Mexico's vibrant wildlife inspires blue and yellow feather printed silk crêpe de chine and chiffon while the brilliant hues and saturation of Mayan weave are embodied in Mac Millan's unique luminous silk prints and, new for Mac Millan, cool cotton/silk voile.

With the ease and fluidity of Japanese tradition, originally constructed dresses embrace origami style folding techniques. The back of a crêpe de chine dress wraps entirely round to the centre front forming angular pleats while a tapered dress has low cut sleeves hanging in soft folds. Effortless relaxed glamour is personified in a capacious voile billowing top and wrap skirt.

Mac Millan's signature pleated chiffon dresses, an established favourite with celebrities, are particularly evident with plunging or pleat scarf necks. Long or short, these will undoubtedly be the stars of the season.

Editor Notes:
Mac Millan has showcased collections "on schedule" at New York Fashion Week via catwalk shows from 2004 until 2007 when they made their runway debut during London Fashion Week.
