Gianfranco Ferr: Gianfranco Ferr's untimely death in June left the company in a tenuous situation. Reportedly, the designer had selected fabrics, given his spring collection a general mood and even begun working on prototypes. His staff - headed by longtime assistant Liborio Capizzi - was left to execute. What came out on the runway Monday night may have been initiated by Ferr, but the sinuous high-waisted pants (tons of them), the tiered, cotton and satin patchwork baby-doll dresses along with the long chiffon gowns lacked the designer's high-drama imprint and rigorous ...
