SISLEY LIMITED EDITION FALL/WINTER 2007/2008 Collection
The extremely stylish and chic characteristics of the Sisley Limited Edition collection are perfectly reflected in its very elegant symbol, a black feather.
The collection takes its inspiration from different worlds: the future, science fiction and space as imagined or seen in the movies are blended with memories of historical costume, from the Middle Ages to today.
Thus metallic fabrics and studs, high-tech materials and precious silks, jewel buttons and leather thongs, zips and buckles, trench belts and obi belts, sweetheart necklines and cut-out necklines, floaty chiffon and pressed-cloth, coated jersey and handmade tricot work all together in perfect harmony.
A sophisticated world which comes to life after dusk and is dyed in night shades, cut with metallic flashes: deep and matte black, cosmos blue, mercury, asphalt and stone grey, the gloss of lamé, of lurex and of coated leather. Denim, an all-time must-have, finds fresh success in impeccable tones of black, of dark and iridescent blue and white.
Flawless details and richness of materials in the apparent simplicity of true and sophisticated elegance, just like the feather that adorns the Sisley Limited Edition label.

SISLEY FALL/WINTER 2007/2008 MEN’S COLLECTIONS
Wall Street. The look is formal and alluring, whilst not exactly wearing a jacket as tradition dictates. Businessmen travel in three-quarter coats, double-breasted or with three buttons, in light colour or plaid wool. The office version demands a polo neck and a fisherman-rib sweater, with waterproof blouson jackets, some of which are padded. The slim, straight trousers range from grisaille and pinstriped to dark denim.
Top Gun. Cutting a dash with zero sense of danger. Jeans faded by use worn with blouson aviator style jackets in either khaki with fur around the hood, or lemon yellow with a plaid lining or with ribbed knit sleeves. Striped sweaters, with jacquard decorations on the sleeves and large cable on the front, complete a perfect pilot style.
Gosford Park. The respectable country gentleman wears a herringbone wool coat with a small fur collar or a trench. Marl sweaters with shawl collar and the classic tweed blazer. The look is completed with gloves, soft caps and hunting trousers. The colours are from the countryside; meadow green, wood, moss and periwinkle blue.
Breakfast at Tiffany’s. A social, nocturnal theme with a look for partying and celebrating until dawn. Head to foot in black; a slim suit that looks like a tuxedo, pinstripe trousers worn with a black cardigan, shirt and shiny tie. A black overcoat, a camouflage print waistcoat in smoky shades, and a black quilted down-filled nylon jacket.

SISLEY FALL/WINTER 2007/2008 WOMEN’S COLLECTIONS
Wall Street. A tough NYC look is created by a hard-hitting smoky black wardrobe, with a sophisticated sex appeal. A selection of contrasts offer various options: Short and boxy trench coats or long, sleek and elegant ones with fur collars. Trousers are either wide with many darts or tapering and very slim. Sweaters are either wide one piece garments or figure-hugging with parts in quilted nylon. Shiny minis or Bermuda shorts in cool wool.
Top Gun. For the determined woman there is a provocative rethink of the tracksuit and the aviator jacket. Slim-fit down-filled jackets and jogging shorts, form-fitting jeans with striped sweaters. Knits are romantic and relaxed, and shirts are arabesqued and shiny like a fuselage. The main colours are air force blue denim and khaki
Gosford Park. A soft and feminine look for the country. Faux fur or hand knitted boleros, frock coat jackets in waterproof cotton or wool worn with long trousers or shorts. The colours of a rainy English countryside are brightened by flashes of violet and rosewood shades. Herringbone, velvet, Prince of Wales, moleskin, leather and faux fur are softened with floral patterns from the Art-Nouveau of the 1930s.
Breakfast at Tiffany’s. A sophisticated section worthy of the Holly Golightly/Audrey Hepburn icon. The theme’s key looks are the evening and cocktail dresses in black and cream. Either a slim-fit version in textured fabric or a fuller dress in organza with random sunray pleats coated in gold. Naturally there is daywear too. Short, boxy sixties style coats above the knee, ultra-lightweight and sheer “veiled” knitwear and black trousers to be worn with faux mink jackets cinched at the waist by flashy belts in passion red.
