With abstract flag prints and primary colours for spring, Lacoste shone the spotlight on the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, where it will outfit the French team with its SS 2016 show.<\/p>\n

For the second time \u2014 after Sochi in 2014 \u2014 Lacoste will outfit the French Olympic delegation at the 2016 Summer Olympics next August in Rio de Janeiro. Felipe Oliveira Baptista used this as his starting point for spring, infusing his fresh and sporty collection with all things \u201cpositive, dynamic and free.\u201d In a largely primary colour palette, the lineup featured athletic references and national flags aplenty.<\/p>\n

For women, Baptista rendered polo minidresses and bomber jackets in bold, abstract flag prints. The sporty look skewed sexy, too: a navy, deep-V jumpsuit with cutouts highlighted body consciousness. The strongest looks in the lineup bore a utilitarian vibe, such as a space age-y metallic flight suit and a chic, fluid Army green safari dress made from parachute nylon.<\/p>\n

As for the men\u2019s wear, technical fabrics such as parachute nylon worked well in summer anoraks and bodysuits while Japanese crepe cotton elevated the softly constructed suit offering. The broken flag graphic element infused new life into the house\u2019s polo heritage and added visual excitement.<\/p>\n
