Derercuny
REVIEW
COMPLETE COLLECTION
MILAN, February 17, 2008
By Nicole Phelps
What's missing from the modern woman's wardrobe? It's not the tunic dress, densely embroidered to evoke armor and featuring sheer, G-string-exposing, ruched tulle sides, that closed the Derercuny show. A blouse in black lace—also see-through, and with the puffed upper sleeves of a medieval knight's costume—probably isn't topping anybody's must-have list either. But there they both were in Korean designer Mina Lee's third runway show for this Samsung-backed, Milan-based brand. Once upon a time (as in before she started showing the collection on a catwalk), Lee was known for the deceptively simple, wearable way she mixed feminine details with masculine tailoring. There were practical and chic pieces here, including a blouson sweater vest that topped a high-neck button-down chiffon blouse and long khaki flares, as well as on-trend, thick-ribbed, short sweater dresses that looked dipped in gold or silver paint. But they were lost in the Gothic haze produced by the out-of-date notion of building a collection around an inspiration as overt as the Middle Ages.
