Lalesso goes wrong....

This new collection from LALESSO shows some weakness. I have always loved Lalesso but i don't get the feeling this time.
Lalesso is a fabulous company created by Alice Heusser and Olivia Kennaway. Lalesso uses vibrant African colours and material.
This year, the designers have gone for 4 panels of colours : black with pineapples, white and light turquoise, blue and yellow, soft pink and yellow with strips.
It is a bit fade, the designs are not appealing to me anymore.i do not recognise the Lalesso i love...

DESIGNS WAY TO SIMILAR....
The return each year of the short and lalesso skirt is enough








NOT LALESSO?
I do not recognise Lalesso's perfection for designs that make us feel beautiful.





I am disappointed by the colours: too fade... Disappointed by the garments: too similar to the previous collections or the opposite of Lalesso's style!

Lalesso rocks and i do not wish to see it fail... This fashion label does a lot for Kenya. The Spring Summer 2009 collection was stunning, it had Lalesso printed on silk, never seen before: It was an innovation. The Spring Summer 2010 collection was pretty,it was very hard to come up with a strong collection after the big success of the previous one, but it held it together.
The innovation for this new collection is the use of viscose instead of cotton: much lighter and nicer to wear but i am not sure it will be enough... I will always be a fan but maybe not a buyer anymore...

it must have been hard for Lalesso to keep up with expectations
