Designer Joseph Abril has breathed new life into Armand Basi, as his youthful direction is widening the appeal of the brand. His work is not ground-breaking but his use of light fabrics is stronger than last season, and more suitable to a summer collection. The minimal and fresh collection produced a few interesting suprises, including a extra long shirt that resembled a dress and silk all-in-one boiler suit.
