Paris, France – Here comes Manish Arora with another collective body of colorful work. It brings a hute spark of humor and child fantasies for Spring/Summer 2017.

Unicorns, flamingos, florals, circles, glamorous sequins and castles from so many girly cartoons are decorating the garments for this season. Skirts, shirts, sweatshirts and dresses. Manish Arors seems to be inspired by the Asian Lolita movement.

All his pieces are full of details, sometimes screaming with wild energy ideal for a maximalista. Embroideries, ribbons and ruffles are mixed with a boyish sailor theme in some silhouettes. Another visible inspiration is from Indian culture folklore in vivid colored designs on long dresses, skirts and jackets.  To finish this playful prevention like Japanese animé, one can find some cute accessories like bags, long socks, berets and wicked creepers.

In these tough and uncertain times, a sense of humor is always appreciated. Manish Arora clearly seeks to use it in giving us a new and far less pessimistic perspective on life.
