Alberta Ferretti's Mod Squad

Today’s collection was classic Alberta Ferretti: floaty and feminine and romantic — well, with a dash of mod.

Those looking for the embellished romance the designer’s known for can take comfort: lace, beading and floating silhouettes were all over the runway.

Ferretti also played a great deal with brocade — brooking the embellishment and the mod with another 60s reference.

The stark mod shapes made for a sharp contrast — although the pieces were still wearable, basic and easy to like.
