Take luxurious elegance, multiply it by refined taste, add a modern edge and you have Blumarine's Fall 2004 collection.

The Blumarine femme is far from giving up her throne on private planes and multi million dollar yachts anchored off the coast of Corsica. However this season, when assembling her glorious outfits, this temptress is being influenced by the urban inspirations she picked up while dancing the night away at hot spots like Bungalow 8 and Chinawhite. Smoldering leopard print jackets, flirty chiffon blouses, prim and proper fur collar camisoles and fox stoles fasten this globe trotter to the world of rugby boys, Formula One races and boundless extravagance, but her skinny, fitted, low-cut denim pants communicate a gentle "fuck you" message to the wealth she loves to hate. She is all about modern vintage, glamorous understatement and preppy rebellion.

This season, for day wear Fashionlines favors Blumarine's fierce red fitted wool pantsuits and wild cat ensembles. It is the perfect mix of streamlined, sensible class and nonchalant edge. As for the evening, what could be more divine than a glamorous fish-scale-sequin translucent dress? The couture-like beadwork and detailing on these pieces are simply exquisite.
