Words by Matt Huxley<\/p>\n

The Ascot mum brigade was out in full force last week to witness Tracey Watkins debut her SS line for White Label Noba. Transforming the Soleil Pool Bar into a pineapple haven, models strutted the length of the bar clad in the decidedly resort like line.<\/p>\n

Taking inspiration from 60s riviera fashions, the Saint Tropez influence was clear. But whilst the cuts, colours and styles were taken from that loud and carefree period, the presentation was clearly 21st century. Loud primal colours like fuchsia, forest green and rose gold were tamed by the additions of stark white, navy and black, allowing this collection to appeal to the widest range of demographics.<\/p>\n

As in all collections, there were clear standouts. A v-neck, handkerchief-style top in pink and green check was a wonderful addition with its trailing ends fluttering fabulously in the breeze. The meshing of laser cut bell end sleeves to a cotton shirt top was also clever. The “come fly with me” neck ties were a nice addition. A pair of white capri pants were elevated with rose gold sequins carried down the side – resembling a resort employees dress pant. The addition of a v-line of ruffles down a navy shift dress also got my approval. And in one of the final outfits out, a stunningly over the top flamenco skirt brought everyone back to the ballroom age. Also need I mention the bonus of several attractive scantily clad men that got all the Ascot mums tittering into their champagne.<\/p>\n

However where there were hits, there had to be one or two misses. Paisley \u00a0and polkadots were\u00a0an expected addition, but both were\u00a0a tad overused, and one or two of the kaftans seemed to have a bit too much fabric to them. But having said that, the collection as a whole was a grand success and Watkins can be suitably pleased with herself, she stayed true to her vision and the pieces will be most certainly flying off the racks.<\/p>\n
