My favorite piece, naturally, was this lacey sweater printed with the images of a snowy owlAmongst all the Spring 2010 collections I've seen thus far, Christian Wijnants definitely wins the award for most poetic. The former Swiss Textile Award winner created a collection that's constructed from the most ethereally printed silks, and embellished with perfectly frayed patches that take on the appearance of lingering dandelion tufts. The result was so elegant and fragile looking, I was almost afraid to touch the pieces, fearing they would disintegrate beneath my clumsy fingers. An underlying avian theme ran throughout this season's inspiration, with printed owls and ostriches making appearances, as well as beautifully crafted fabric feathers. My favorite of course was the sweater with owl printed on it, which I'm hoping to add to my closet when spring time comes.
