JOHNSTONS OF ELGIN LAUNCHES BRIGHT AND BEAUTIFUL SPRING/SUMMER 2012 COLLECTION

Colour is Spring/Summer’s biggest style story. Lightness and optimism underpin the season’s three key colour groups in Johnstons of Elgin new cashmere knitwear collection - Kaleidoscope.

A palette of attention-seeking rainbow brights adds graphic punch to the Spring/Summer, perfectly capturing the catwalk mood. Elegant cuts meet explosive colours in a burst of brilliant glamour, or in boldly clashing combinations with new multi-coloured stripe and contrasting trim jumper and cardigan styles.

A study of smokey tones presents an elegant alternative to the season’s dazzling brights and femininity is celebrated in its nuanced and subtle tints of blended taupe, greige and pinked hues. These relaxed knitwear styles are perfect for travel, worn with combat shorts or trousers.

Delicate shades enhance feather-light gauzy knits where feminine silhouettes and delicate detailing are key. Elegantly draped sweaters, ballet wraps and décolleté necklines complete a story of easy chic Spring/Summer dressing.

A collection of cashmere, linen, silk and merino blend and extra fine merino stoles and scarves completes the Spring/Summer collection. Coloured neutrals and white form a base for faded, earthy colours and a spray-dying technique creates an uneven effect of monotone colour.
