PHOTOGRAPHY BY TERRY DISNEY/EXPRESS/GETTY IMAGES (THE ROLLING STONES) GOOD THINGS COME… …IN EXCLUSIVE PACKAGES. THIS SEASON, INSPIRED CAPSULE COLLECTIONS MAKE INDELIBLE STYLE STATEMENTS. BY LISA FERRANDINO With tastemakers and trendsetters focused on exclusivity, this spring is all about the capsule collection. Three are at the very top of the list, and it all begins with Giorgio Armani (22 Newbury St., 617-267- 3200; armani.com). The designer takes modernity to the next level with a just-for-spring capsule collection in his New Normal line launched last year, offering a reinter- preted look at his own iconic styles. Newer, lightweight pieces offer a fresher take on spring's suiting options with checkered blazers, band-collared shirts, and a long flowing skirt in soft color palettes of gray, white, and navy. It's all about rock 'n' roll for après-ski favorite Moncler (Copley Place, 857-317-7619; moncler.com)—the brand launches an all-black men's capsule collection celebrating The Rolling Stones' 50-plus-year history. Our standout picks? Four leather jackets lined with the band's famed tongue- and-lips logo. Meanwhile, Salvatore Ferragamo (Copley Place, 617-859- 4924; ferragamo.com) Creative Director Massimiliano Giornetti joins Aquazzura designer Edgardo Osorio to harken back to the brand's celebrated mid-century footwear. The Edgardo Osorio for Salvatore Ferragamo collection features 11 shoe styles, including rainbow wedges and winged sandals ( ABOVE), reinterpreted from iconic Ferragamo designs from the 1930s, '40s, and '50s. Oh so retro! . Giorgio Armani's latest New Normal capsule collection features beautifully textured whites and breezy silhouettes.
