It's hard not to become obsessed with Ann-Sofie Back's particular brand of minimalism. For the Autumn Winter 2012 BACK collection, she mixes her sharp aesthetic with elements that are less polished. Bright electric turquoise fabrics, sporty athletic materials, transparent plastic jewelry, and metallic pleather are all things that might look tacky in someone else's hands, but Back gives them a refined new look. Juxtaposed with the more minimalist silhouettes, these elements not only make the clothes more accessible and less precious, but add an element of fun, play, and unexpectedness to what could otherwise become very serious or severe looking pieces.
