...giving them a lighter hand or a three-dimensional quality. They pushed the boundaries, often employing far-out materials like rubber and plastic. More recently, Alexander McQueen has expressed a ghostly romantic vibe with fine spiderweb netting. Francisco Costa has been playing with perforated latex and stretch scuba at Calvin Klein. And at Fendi, Karl Lagerfeld reintroduced the idea of rubber, pleating it around evening columns like a sci-fi mummy...

For several seasons Costa has been struggling to pay homage to Klein in a sort of literal manner. But with this collection he seemed more confident to go his own way.
