UNITED COLORS OF BENETTON
spring/summer 2008
Womenswear collections
Brilliant colours, dynamic style, young glamour, international mood.
Four definitions which, in a harmonious whole, sum up the UCB collection for the next spring and summer season. A spontaneous style yet with fashion detailing, true to itself, while incorporating lifestyle changes.

New Woman, or formalwear from 8 in the morning to 8 in the evening, with strictly classic items featuring low waists, ultra-narrow hems, basic colours and stripes in all widths and all directions. Outerwear, long or short, has trench details; the shirts, the current must-haves, also influence the cut of the t-shirts and minidresses which become shirt dresses.
Her like Him, basic men's styles with feminine charm. Neutral tones with a touch of rosewood. Slouchy trousers top the bill yet when it's the turn of skirts they must be fluid and floaty above the knee. A parenthesis of sprigged silk and a sparkle of sequins that are barely visible soften the raincoats and the striped shirts of the perfect executive.
Everything's Ethno, an unpredictable touch of folk; stateless fashion details tell of far-off lands: Peruvian stripes, Caribbean flowers, Japanese sleeves, African patterns, Indian jodhpurs and Nepalese layering.
Sweaters, or a world of knits. Soft tricots in every colour, every stitch and every size to be worn with multicoloured leggings and tape knit shrugs. Stripes are endearing and enchanting decorations -- horizontal, vertical, floral, openwork, ruched and gathered. The rugby polo shirt is offered in multiple lengths, even as far as the ankle.

Menswear collections
Three continents, three male icons. This is the inspiration behind the collection for the next spring and summer season for the UCB man.

Mitteleuropean, a radical chic intellectual profile in a formal suit with hyper-classic cut and fabric -- light pinstriped wool, dog's tooth check and linen -- and yarn-dyed shirts for a real dandy. Preference is given to grey and beige with ultra-sophisticated violet asides. A more casual feel for trench coats and biker blousons in nylon ottoman. Unbeatable charm for the sweaters, always in cotton, always super-fine, almost always worn against the skin.
American Dream. The styles and colours of an exclusive yacht club; natural, resin-coated and open weave cotton from head to toe and limitless denim. Slouchy trousers and above all Bermuda shorts with or without turn-ups; polo shirts with wide and narrow stripes; blousons with ocean sprays and blazers, naturally in blue.
Indochina, romantic traveller or special envoy, hand luggage always at the ready. His clothes, right out of his bag, are always artfully wrinkled, in military and jungle colours, mostly in linen. Colonial outfits with trousers with pockets in various lengths, long shirts which slip easily from yarn-dyed patterns into floral prints. Outerwear is kitted up with antiqued finishes, in cotton, gabardine and also super-washed leather, to keep out the monsoon rains.
