First look: Sonia by Sonia Rykiel Pre-Fall 14
Fun and fearless at the French fashion house

Bright colours and quirky extras make up the predominant part of the label's latest offering
Fun French fashion house Sonia Rykiel has colour and quirk with the DNA of the brand, so for Pre-Fall the design team presented an accessible take on the former, with a pretty strong Japanese influence and some surrealism thrown in. And why not?
A signature motif was hands appearing holding flower bouquets printed on pastel silk shirt-dresses, blouses and pyjama-esq trousers.
Another motif was apples - seen on a sweater, striped top and also interesting jewellery elements in the form of a detachable string of oversized pearls attached to necklines... Accessorising made simple, and that works for us.
