Armani finishes daytime looks with a smart, collarless topper somewhere between a jacket and a shirt with 3/4 length sleeves that lets a glimpse of skin peep through.
This handy little piece is combined with softly draping, lace-up pants in white and light tones of beige and ice blue/grey.

Evenings by Armani feature lightweight pants in darker tones of blue and black combined with form-fitting jackets worn open over sequined tops.
Other top options (embroidered, in tulle or transparent) barely cover the essentials, yet never dip below the tasteful!

For the romantic woman, there are light and dreamy dresses with little black bags sporting lacquer-red designs.
The great designer will have his fun, however, and sounds a more extravagant note with asymmetrical trousers: one leg shortened below the knee and one extending to mid-calf.

The complementing jacket is nearly hermetically sealed in front and daringly bare in the back.

Krizia, who maintain they have never created clothing for "the little woman" have presented a Spring collection which cries out from the heart of the jungle -- and the king of Krizia's jungle is not the lion but the tiger.
Dresses, pants, bags and jackets the eyes of the predatory feline are everywhere!

The best place to hide is behind a Krizia sunglasses-style bra-top, complete with reflecting lenses.
This unique innovation tops pants of an earthy red tone reminiscent of Maasai warriors and the African savannah.
