Warm, earthy tones were the order of the day at DVF where, in a change from past seasons, rusty ochre tones replaced a bright lip look. With faces resplendent in dusty shades of khaki, biscuit and sepia the mood was sophisticated, grown-up and shadowy, with a play on light and dark being the main focus.

Hair was in keeping with the mood, with Orlando Pita sweeping hair into matte but still elegant French pleats.
