Felipe Oliveira Baptista was influenced by
the Paul Bowel´s novel about two Americans travelling on North Africa, but the
collection, that he named “The Sheltering sky” was far from an homage to
African culture (maybe a safari-reminder-look inspiration), it was all about
the shirt ( and we already know that S/S
2014 is so into shirtdress´s silhouette, like here, here, here, here, here, here, here and much more). We saw it in long dresses, jumpsuits,
cropped jackets and sleeveless short dresses. They weren´t all alone, but accompanied by fabulous
trenches and flak jackets. A sky was represented in all its possible aspects with the color palette,
white and pale blue and green as a sunny sky, dark colors (blue, green) as when
the sun is almost gone and the graphic ones as (starry?) night.
A collection full of rigor, due the “military-shirt”
silhouette, but with not so hidden romantic side too.
