Jil Sander
Designer: Jil Sander

• “Jil Sander is back, and it shows.” [AP]
• “Sander certianly doesn’t need to be angst racked about her creativity. Like her come-back show last season, this was another filled with delecatable, wearable yet forward-looking minimalist clothes.” [The Daily Telegraph][
• "This designer reminded us what is at the heart of her vision: discipline and mannerism. Chances are, whoever's wearing these clothes, they'll have a mind as sophisticated." [Dazed Digital]
• “Every piece was a master class in pure execution.” [ELLEuk.com]
• “The collection had the grace of refusal, no doubt, but it also lacked urgency; these clothes didn’t demand anything–attention or that jolt of recognition for an unidentified self–besides respect. Which isn’t always the most potent emotion.” [FT.com]
• “The overall effect was of a good strong collection, but not one to change the feminist vision that the Jil Sander label identified so many years ago.” [International Herald Tribune]
• “Calling a Jil Sander show a study in pure and composed minimalism sounds almost redundant at this point. She is the high priestess of this particular point of view.” [NOWFASHION]
• “Although there were many appealing things in her fall show, like the colors (saffron, sky blue, clay red), the thinking seemed rigid. It closed off possibilities, like a minimalist but up-to-date expression of glamour.” [On The Runway/The New York Times]
• “With Jil Sander back at her namesake label and Raf Simons settled in at Dior, doesn’t it feel like the forces of minimalism just can’t be stopped? Sander’s Fall 2013 collection, shown Saturday in Milan, certainly made a strong case for that, anyway.” [POPSUGAR Fashion]
• “There was more freedom in the tone of this collection compared to last season’s austere palette of navy, white and burgundy. She’d opted for ‘high-carat femininity’, which was realised through a range of gemstone colours.” [SHOWstudio]
• “The serenity of today’s presentation was unimpeachable.” [Style.com]
• “In the end, though, it was Sander’s meditations on all the ways that you will want to take cover come winter that were the best moments of her show.” [Vogue.com]
• “Luxurious and well considered, all the Sander hallmarks were here and this time engineered into something especially innovative and beautiful.” [Vogue.com UK]
• “The reentry jitters, whatever they may have been, are now officially gone. As with her men’s show in January, on Saturday Jil Sander proved herself in stellar form.” [WWD]
