Blumarine: David Koma takes boudoir glamour into the California sun

Blumarine presented its Spring/Summer 2027 collection by creative director David Koma at Milan Fashion Week at the end of September. Irina Shayk opened the show, and FashionTV has published a video of it. According to OTS Magazine, Koma drew on a recent journey through California: the house's nocturnal glamour is carried into a softer, sunlit mood, with washed natural tones and a relaxed West Coast feel.

According to OTS Magazine, Shayk wore a dramatic black ruffled gown, followed by iterations in softer baby blue. The palette ran from baby blue and powder lilac to faded yellow and translucent pink. Babble Up describes faded pinks, delicate fabrics, boudoir references and delicate lingerie references. OTS Magazine lists Lolita-inspired babydolls, lingerie-shaped minis, PVC bras decorated with florals and a completely sheer pink finale gown with crépon flowers.

Alongside these came everyday pieces such as shrunken cardigans and cut-out jeans, tiered tulle paired with oversized Y2K varsity jerseys, and ruched skirts in lilac and yellow. For footwear, Blumarine worked with Ugg: the "Enwrap" clog comes with metal hardware and multicoloured cabochon stones or covered in ostrich feathers. Babble Up sums up the direction: "The femininity is still very Blumarine, just less nocturnal."
