Continuing last season’s appeal to a younger customer, Cacharel plowed familiar fields with its simple shapes and abundance of tweaked floral prints – sometimes at the risk of oversimplification. Stretch silk, cotton voile and canvas were cut in bomber jackets, drop-waist dresses and off-the-shoulder tops. Standouts included a striped suit with ankle-grazer trousers, egg-shaped coats in bright blue or white, printed pleated dresses, and a Bardot dress with buttons running down the sides that hit an innocent-yet-flirty Sixties note. Approachable and easy to read, those will do well on the label’s e-commerce site, launched in early September.
