The films of Luchino Visconti serve as the inspiration of Robert Geller’s fall 2011 collection. Seeking to translate a rich style of composition into an easy wardrobe of separates, fall’s range brings images of elegance into the modern age with Geller’s signature cuts and craftsmanship. Reflecting Visconti’s world with luxe leather finishes and inescapable pieces ranging from waistcoats and jackets to trousers, the collection still managed to show a little raw edge. Showing a youthful hand, denim, studded accessories and lounge-cut trousers made the unexpected statement in a collection that was no doubt in the Geller vein, but also a break with the expected for a season of intrigue.
