Antonio Marras took impulse from the Sardinian criminal queen, Paska Devaddis, for his 2010/11 autumn/winter pick up at Milan Fashion Week today.

Devaddis who in reality has her own Facebook page ruled the plateau of Sardinia at the commencement of the 20th century, and was eminent for her brew of mens and womens clothes.

Marras, whose collections regularly have a romantic, elegant thread, used this thought for a leit-motif of dainty androgyny, blending heavy, severe tweeds with very old trinket and selected furs.

To the receptive to advice of folkloric song and galloping hooves, his models appeared in a old-fashioned version of rustic-chic. They wore leather-and fur-patched, difficult tweed vests over floral silk dresses; high-waisted, peasant-style trousers, with "old man" waistcoats; and military-look cloaks, with epaulettes.

Bibs of edging and very old stones were scored equally over edging blouses; edging petticoats pepped underneath silken, drop-waist dresses. Short capes and tweed jackets suggested a value trove of glittering, jewelled embroidery, as the models turned.

Pinstripe pantaloons were tucked in to high-heeled boots, and shoestring-strapped dresses came in a mlange of multicolored check and flesh-tone lace, ragged with glitter-tights, and flat, crepe-sole, snakeskin lace-ups.

Heavy-duty layering enclosed short and prolonged vests ragged one over the other, with long, below-the-knee flannel skirts, and metallic-tweed coats with bullion brocade suits.
