Nicole Farhi Collection
September 16, 2008
Nicole Farhi RTW Spring 2009
Probably the edgiest element in this collection was the “Obama ’08” pin on one model's striped tea dress. It’s a rare thing for a London designer to declare her politics on the catwalk (except if she’s Vivienne Westwood), but then Farhi is married to the celebrated playwright Sir David Hare – never one to hold back his left-leaning sentiments. This was a breezy collection filled with pieces fit for a summer’s dejeuner in Provence: There were red and blue striped cotton dresses, sweet jackets with cropped sleeves and turned-up cuffs, and skirts embroidered with red and black swirls. Michelle Obama may well be knocking on Farhi's door come November.
