Innholdsfortegnelse for Aprile 2015 i Collezioni Accessori

When I write my editorial I am usually out of office, or I put on my headphones. And since I love innumerable genres of music, in most cases I select one that for me is connected with the just-prepared issue of the magazine. Today I am in office and as a rule I put on my headset to cut myself off for a while and write while thinking exclusively of the contents of the next issue. But I cannot get started. Why? Because I cannot find a music genre that matches this edition in the way I mean. Then I decid to trust in random selection. AND IT WORKS!!! Clearly I have deduced that the main mood of this season will be Freedom. Freedom of expression. Freedom in the use…

Embroideries and stylized tapestry-style printings, damasks and jacquards, intense and vibrant, decorate accessories featuring gritty, austere volumes, recalling a postmodern urban warrior.

Climbed super boots, men’s two-coloured creepers and sandals adorned with fur. Long leather gloves in block colour hold vintage bon ton bags, a patchwork of memories and texture sensitivity involved in a constant contamination.

Valuable leather, soft and essential, iconographical like a precise contemporary uniform.

Miss bon-ton, charmed by urban contaminations with the men’s wardrobe. Well-defined and gritty accessories, almost unisex, like the dark clutch bags, ultra-flat and functional, and the handbag rendered in ultra-refined leather featuring severe hues.

Latin blood is flowing in the ready to wear collection by Céline: a carefree and yet dramatic approach to life, which results in eclectic overlays with strong craftsmanship. The primary colours in constant crosshatch give way to animal prints; sound walking travels on monochrome sneakers and intertwined footwear; surreal and talismanic details subvert banality.

Mademoiselle Miu Miu is in an irresistibly whimsical mood. Plays with the times, resurrects fifties accessories and surprises with details worthy of an unlikely comic pop. Makes fun of the bon ton, reviewing the entire palette of pastel tones and introducing destabilizing elements, to say the least. The jewellery is oversized around her proud look; animal inserts peeking between elegant stripes, sometimes overlapping in a continuous game of ironic opulence; a sharp point here, a vertiginous heel there, elsewhere belts and straps worthy of a corset from other times, all against backgrounds of paint and glitter. Mademoiselle Miu Miu says something, and then suddenly denies it... Contradictory? Quite the contrary, in doing so she is more genuine than ever! Mademoiselle Miu Miu veste di un umore irresistibilmente capriccioso. Gioca con…

Everything is itself, but to the nth degree: this appears to be the advice of Takahashi for Undercover. The very high heels acquire sinuous lines and textures of matter, while sports shoes float on high soles with tetrahedral margins. The earrings become enormous hemispheres and the chokers shine like chandeliers. Veiled glances and crystallized smiles, the accessory becomes the protagonist. Ogni cosa sia se stessa, all’ennesima potenza: sembra questo il consiglio di Takahashi per Undercover. I tacchi, altissimi, acquistano linee sinuose e consistenze materiche, mentre le calzature sportive galleggiano su alte suole dai margini tetraedrici. Gli orecchini diventano enormi semisfere e i girocollo luccicano come lampadari. Velati gli sguardi e cristallizzati i sorrisi, l’accessorio si fa protagonista.…

“I know it’s only rock and roll but I like it…” is the leitmotiv at Saint Laurent since Hedi Slimane took over the creative direction of the brand. The very same mood echoed on the Parisian catwalks where leather rules: thin ties and collars, braces, micro bags with chains, belts dotted with metal inserts, sandals and stilettos sprinkled with edgy studs.  “I know it’s only rock and roll but I like it…” E’ questo il leitmotiv che accompagna lo stile Saint Laurent da quando Hedi Slimane ne ha assunto la direzione, lo stesso che riecheggia sulle passerelle parigine, dove la pelle fa da sovrana: su sottilissime cravatte e collari, bretelle, micro bag con catena, cinture punteggiate di inserti metallici, sandali e stiletti cosparsi di borchie pungenti.…

Bill Gaytten’s collection for John Galliano, which summarizes the dictates of the ready-to-wear, with forms of femininity joined with masculine details and a discreet extravagance, accentuated by the use of elementary red and bishop purple.

L’ispirazione, esplicitamente Decò, riecheggia la lezione del Modernismo nella linearità dei gioielli e nell’effetto decorativo dei larghi intrecci.…

A warm and enveloping autumn/winter at BCBG Max Azria.

Leather creeps in and is intertwined with other materials while laser-cut details make lighter the shapes of the accessories. Un inverno caldo e avvolgente quello di BCBG Max Azria. Stivali in pelle altissimi fin sopra il ginocchio, colli alti e morbidamente avvolgenti e dettagli aggiunti con lacci in pelle quasi a voler scaldare ulteriormente le tuniche e i poncho di questa stagione. La pelle si insinua e si intreccia con altri materiali, mentre i dettagli tagliati al laser alleggeriscono ulteriormente le linee degli accessori.…

‘Sapphire and Steel’, the Seventies TV series about the adventures of two time traveller detectives, is the main theme of the collection.

Oversized glasses and boots worn under wide cuffed trousers are expertly matched with mini bags in typically old-fashioned colour tones. Una serie televisiva degli anni ’70 “Zaffiro e Acciaio”, che racconta le avventure di due detective viaggiatori del tempo è il filo conduttore di questa collezione. 1970s vibes esaltate dalla scelta delle fantasie che colorano gli outfit, ma anche dagli accessori accuratamente rivisitati.

Colori caldi della terra, linee sobrie ed eleganti, tagli classici e raffinati, tessuti e piume ricamate che ricordano fiori e licheni delle foreste secolari e ambientazioni anni ‘30, con qualche richiamo ai favolosi anni ‘70. Un Michael Kors che osa, più che nello stile, negli abbinamenti spesso in contrasto tra di loro, ma che rendono una donna elegante ed assolutamente sicura di sè. Pellicce all-over in cui la volpe è l’accento della collezione. Un allure retrò è il collegamento che ritroviamo in sottili cinturini che evidenziano la vita o nelle scarpe con tacco non esagerato decorate con code di rondine. Le borse hanno quasi un’aura masculina e semplici chiusure a fibbia si ritrovano anche sulle scarpe basse. Colori caldi della terra, linee sobrie ed eleganti, tagli classici e raffinati, tessuti…

For the 30th anniversary of Tommy Hilfiger what better theme to celebrate his achievements than American football in all its nuances. The aim is to link sport with luxury. The typical stripes of athletics and football team wear play the leading role, but the real stars are the ankle boots with laces, a piece that everyone will want in their wardrobe.

L’intento è quello di mettere in connessione lo sport con il lusso.

A perfect update of Seventies colours and shapes is the common thread for Thakoon that follows up on some looks from previous collections by reissuing them with new radical meaning.

Herringbone patterns are arranged in bright colours predominant against a black background.

Perhaps a tribute to the United States, perhaps the desire to shine, or the idea of a heroin who will save the galaxy, in any case, stars are the protagonists in both the unequivocal symbols all over and in the chosen colours. Silver at the base of everything, like stardust; intergalactic style belts and shield-like bags and backpacks, even shoes are reminiscent of the knights ready to sacrifice themselves to save the world. Forse un omaggio agli Stati Uniti, forse la voglia di brillare, oppure l’idea di un’eroina che salverà la galassia, in ogni caso le stelle, sia nei simboli inequivocabili all over che nelle tinte scelte sono le protagoniste.

The simplicity highlights the value of artisan skills: leather and patent leather boots, strappy sandals, thin belts and geometric clutches point to absolute perfection, sometimes tinged with tones of vintage flavour. The complexity of the surface decorations excludes any compromise, using prized haute couture techniques: the inlay in the geometric elements alternating white and blacks like a mosaic, embroidery inspired by naturalism in the brilliant tones of oriental silks, a shower of pearly feathers with secessionist elegance. Chi ha detto che essenzialità e decorazione non possano coesistere? La nuova collezione ready to wear di Valentino conferma l’assurdità di simili…

Alexis Mabille moves to the lecture chair to declaim his masterful lesson in style: ahead with measured contrasts, in the name of an elegance devoted to practicality. And so we welcome the pastel pink belts wrapped around sportswear garments, the wool caps worn with high-heeled sandals, the backpacks on chiffon dresses and the gentle touch of lace, gliding indifferent on garments and accessories. Alexis Mabille sale in cattedra per declamare la propria magistrale lezione di stile: largo ai contrasti misurati, nel nome di un’eleganza votata alla praticità. E così ben vengano le cinture rosa pastello strette attorno a capi sportwear, le berrette di lana su sandali vertiginosi, gli zaini di felpa su abiti di chiffon e il tocco gentile del pizzo, che plana indifferente su capi ed accessori.…

Contemporary gothic ladies on the Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci catwalk. Austere faces invaded by mysterious and esoteric geometries in piercing, black jet, metal, and crystals. Streamlined clutch bags firmly anchored to the wrists through wide straps. Velvet boots for an authentic exercise in style thanks to protruding cylindrical heels. Sono dame gotiche contemporanee quelle presentate da Riccardo Tisci sulla passerella Givenchy. Con i volti austeri invasi da misteriose ed esoteriche geometrie di piercing, in jais, metallo e cristalli; con le loro clutch essenziali saldamente ancorate ai polsi da ampi cinturini; con gli stivali in velluto, che fanno del tacco sporgente e cilindrico un vero e proprio esercizio di stile.…

The already proven hardcore formula by Andreas Melbostad for Diesel Black Gold still leaves space to new updates. Industrial details like the D-rings instead of studs, the zips and parachute strings instead of leather straps and as decorative details. Everything always strictly in black in all its nuances. Mini bags and bucket bags in clinging to the wrist are the new must-have items. Una formula hardcore ormai collaudata quella di Andreas Melbostad per Diesel Black Gold, ma che trova comunque spazio per delle rivisitazioni. Dettagli industriali come i D-ring al posto delle borchie, cerniere e stringhe da paracadutista al posto dei cinturini in pelle e come decorazioni, sempre tutto rigorosamente Black, in tutte le sue sfumature. Mini borse a secchiello in pelle avvinghiati al polso sono i must have della…

A strong response to a socially and economically difficult period: this is what first comes to mind when looking at the collection. A militant mood is the main character, even when hidden under the sinuous and feminine prints by William Morris, whose past includes social activism. The militant woman look is enhanced by large pockets on skirts, by studs on boots, by bags reminiscent of a tool case. La risposta forte ad un periodo sociale ed economicamente difficile, questo è quello che viene in mente guardando la collezione. Il mood da militante è protagonista, e anche quando nascosto sotto sinuosità femminili, le stampe di William Morris, richiamando il suo passato di attivista sociale, ci reindirizzano subito. La combattente viene esaltata da tasconi sulle gonne, borchie sugli stivali e borse che…

The Whitney Museum of American Art has definitely inspired Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough, who created what can be defined not so much a new collection, rather a work of art in the making. The two designers stated that they were inspired by artists of the fifties, but also that they almost left the collection take shape slowly. Like a picture by Helen Frankenthaler and its typically abstract expressionism which is found in the shades of the coloured fur clutches or in the choice of colours, like tubs of paint spilled on the canvas. The shapely works of Robert Morris are evoked by shoes that seem tied to the foot, or by the linearity of the monochrome bags. Of great impact is the choice of materials, shapes and tailoring that…

Marrakech meets Chelsea in a new and refined version of the hippy look of the best 70s, as the designer herself describes her collection. Tory Burch developed the idea of choosing a topic and running with that through her parameters, combining and enriching them together. The masculine-feminine look is as gentle as the patterns of faded carpets. Countless Moroccan details and repeated all-over prints make it all very elegant. The jewels show Berber influences and add a sophisticated allure. A harmonious contrast between old and new, shiny and dusty, rich and poor in a multitude of warm colours ranging from red to gold, again in harmony with the colder ones, such as blue and cobalt. Marrakech incontra Chelsea in una nuova e ricercata versione dei look Hippy dei migliori anni…

This season Pierre Costin has focused on well-defined shoulders and a highlighted waistline. A sense of confidence and clear strength at the same time, dictated by swathing elements that capture attention. Exaggerated belts, reminiscent of a corset with oversized buckles, enhance the silhouette and tight boots with top down laces give a neo-burlesque touch, where black is the master. Per questa stagione Pierre Costin si è concentrato su spalle ben definite e un punto vita evidenziato. Un senso di confidenza e forza allo stesso tempo dettato da elementi fascianti che catturano l’attenzione. Cinture esagerate che ricordano un corsetto con fibbie oversize esaltano le silhouette e stivali fascianti con laccetti top down danno un tocco neo-burlesque, dove il black la fa da padrone.…

An aggressive and sensual remake of the Parisian dandy of the late ‘800, this is Altuzarra’s woman. The generous fur collars are in stark contrast to the long supertight skirts with slits that leave little to the imagination, just like the necklines. The lace socks protruding from boots of different heights have a sensual touch, while the whips to the side of the bags cast an unequivocally erotic appeal. Una rivisitazione aggressiva e sensuale di una dandy parigina di fine ‘800, questa la donna di Altuzarra. I generosissimi colli in pelliccia sono in netto contrasto con le gonne longuette super aderenti e con spacchi che lasciano poco all’immaginazione, così come i décolleté. I calzini in pizzo che fuoriescono da stivali di altezze diverse hanno un tocco sensuale, mentre i frustini…

I see red! If not total red, then even a small detail reminds us that red is the true master of this collection. The elegant quilted appears in unexpected places like belts which highlight the forms or on the back of a boot. Overall the Dask world seems to try to recall the most glorious moments of the sixties, where handsome James Bond was speeding in his Aston Martin DB5. Vedo Rosso! Se non è total red anche solo un piccolo dettaglio ci ricorda che è il rosso il vero padrone di questa collezione. L’elegante trapuntato compare in posti inaspettati come cinturoni fascianti che evidenziano le forme o sul retro di uno stivale. Nel complesso il mondo di Dask sembra cercar di rimembrare i momenti più gloriosi degli anni Sessanta…

Strong identity, high quality of Italian manufacturing, international taste: these are the features driving the new brand positioning of Vic Matié. Renato Curzi, Linea Marche Group CEO, tells the story of the brand, spanning more than 40 years. “Starting from the shoemaker artisan knowhow, in ‘87 I decided to create several brands, I used a name of French inspiration, Vic Matié, and tried to revolutionize the system: to bring artisans to collaborate with big business, combining quality manufacturing and industrial strength. The Made in Italy is a great heritage; we are capable of creating beautiful products and have the expertise to really make them with responsibility, passion, high quality. Even today I want to get emotional, get excited with new strategies, like the first time; for me reaching the arrival…

1. A futuristic rebirth for Krizia’s strong, feminine, independent woman Futuristic atmospheres and the introduction of a new vision by the creative director Zhu Chongyun who is at the helm of the transition between the past and a futuristic projection towards the future. To establish the new beginning, the theme was ‘rebirth’: a cocoon metamorphosis of the brand DNA that includes lively sketched suggestions, masculine and feminine elements, structured shapes, suggestions of soft movements, garments and accessories worn as a second skin. The Italian manufacturing heritage will be a constant for the future where memories of the past will be intertwined to create Krizia’s new chapter. The eye of the animal - the lucky charm of each collection - becomes a question, a suggestion, open like bird wings or scratched…

Klimt paintings come alive up and down the catwalks, laden with the sensual refined elegance that only the Belle Époque was able to conjure I quadri di Klimt si animano e incedono sulle passerelle carichi di quella eleganza sensuale e raffinata che solo gli anni della Belle Époque hanno saputo raccontare…

Twines of materials where wool is the protagonist: mohair, boiled wool, tweed or crochet… an unexpected version of the warm material Intrecci di materiali in cui la lana è protagonista: mohair, lana cotta, tweed o lavorazioni all’uncinetto… una versione inaspettata del caldo materiale…

Urban-techno-romance style is the groundbreaking feminine trend, a daring and yet romantic mix of influences from the Sixties and high-tech details. Thick heels and wedged-heels models with ankle strap, made from delicate suede or precious leather. Flat clutch bags and modern bowler bags with metal fastenings and finishings for practical and minimal bags. Jewels rendered in coloured Plexiglas featuring geometrical and floral lines Urban tecno romance è la nuova tendenza femminile all’avanguardia, un mix audace ma romantico fra influenze ‘Sixties’ e dettagli high-tech.

Buste piatte e bauletti moderni con chiusure e finiture metalliche per borse funzionali e minimali. Bijoux in plexi colorato geometrici e floreali.…

Androgynous without losing her feminine touch, she wears small shoulder bags, elegant hand-bags featuring the collection themes, practical shoppers and bon-ton tote-bags. She wears men’s lace-ups nonchalantly according to the current mood, made of hybrids and contaminations, pump shoes with a new sound column heel. ‘Crossing colours’ is the name of this collection which plays with primary full colours, with a predominance of red, black and cornflower blue tones, geometric structures and clear graphics that spur sight and touch. The flounce as a distinguishing mark becomes a belt, a shoulder belt, a necklace and a winged brooch. Sunglasses with contrast frame and leather gloves are a matching pair. Androgina senza perdere il tocco femminile, porta piccole tracolle, eleganti handbag sui temi di collezione, funzionali shopper e bauletti bon ton. Veste…

Each collection has its own dream and its own mystery which renew inexorably shapes, materials and colours. Or they resume – soul and historical sum – the world of the brand within a summarizing iconographic key which celebrates its balance, strong and conceptual, documented appeal. Thus, accessories sign the maison’s authentic style, the stylistic code of the origins, chronicle – without frills and fleeting digressions – and substantial influences, looking at the East. Bags with geometric lines, light and practical, at times foldable and featuring charming halfmoons. Shoes are enhanced by sculpture-like, sound heels or they are flat, serious and unisex. Ogni collezione ha un suo sogno e un suo mistero che rinnovano, inesorabilmente, forme, materie e colori. Oppure riassumono, anima e sommatoria storica, il mondo del marchio in una…

‘Funny being fashion’, another eccentric and coloured collection designed by Jeremy Scott inspired from the hip hop and rap culture. Sport-street influences from the basketball and from the Looney Tunes cartoons, Tweety and Sylvester and Bugs Bunny, over shopper and bucket bags, matched to turnip charms, versions in soft padded leather in block colour. Golden chains wrap themed over-the-knee boots and sandals; the baseball caps and the diva sunglasses are unfailing. ‘Funny being fashion’, un’altra eccentrica e colorata collezione disegnata da Jeremy Scott ispirata alla cultura hip hop e rap. Influenze sport-street dal basket e dai cartoon della Looney Tunes, Titti e Silvestro e Bugs Bunny, ritratti su shopper e secchielli, accostati a ciondoli orologio cipolla, versioni in morbida pelle imbottita color block.

Iconic luxury is given a new interpretation through sporty details and experimentations of bourgeois new-elegance by Alessandra Facchinetti, creative director of the maison. Timeless, authentic, modern and feminine accessories, made from very precious materials, are the outcome of artisanal expertise and innovation, yet featuring urban and sporty functionality. Masculine lace-ups, swallow-tailed or fringed, are proposed in the classical flat models or with the usual urban heels, ankle beatle boots and moccasins sewn by hand. The waist is enhanced by geometrical belts, the same is for chockers and pendant-earrings. Bags are forged by skilful maîtres of leather processing and feature geometric lines, inlay works, fringes, metal emblems, fur inserts. Lusso iconico, rivisitato con dettagli sportivi e sperimentazioni di neo eleganza borghese da Alessandra Facchinetti, direttore creativo della maison. Accessori atemporali, autentici,…

Geometric lines are made softer starting from interrupted chokers, interlaced and contiguous bracelets featuring asymmetric taste. Ankle boots made from glossy, layered and lightly rubbed leather, in connection with soft bags and bucket bags. Image of a modern woman, resolute and at the same time feminine and delicate. Almost wearing a city-uniform, with little shoulder bags featuring cold and urban colours. Geometrie ammorbidite a cominciare dai girocolli interrotti, bracciali intrecciati e contigui, di gusto asimmetrico. Tronchetti di pelle lucida sovrapposta e leggermente stropicciata, in adeguata compagine con morbide borse e secchielli. Immagine di donna moderna, affermata ma allo stesso tempo femminile e delicata. Quasi in uniforme cittadina, con postine tracolla e scelta di colori freddi, urbani.…

Severe and stylish monochromy, featuring perfect metropolitan style, balance between masculine and romantic femininity. City-rock-glam style is structured on details: the foulard-tie, the dark and resolute fitting, as much sexy as necessary, everlasting bags and bucket bags made from leather and suede outlined by seams and piercing, rounded glasses for a muse of music. Mysterious, nocturnal and sensual, minimal-chic midnight. Monocromia rigorosa e di stile, in perfetto mood metropolitano, equilibrio fra asprezza mascolina e romantica femminilità. City-rock-glam costruito sui dettagli: il foulard-cravatta, la calzata scura e decisa, sexy quanto basta, intramontabili borse e secchielli in pelle e suede descritte da cuciture e piercing, occhiali rotondi da musa della musica. Misteriosa, notturna e sensuale, mezzanotte minimal-chic.…

A new stylistic and registry course where the passage between the recent past and new prefigurations of the future do not coincide exactly. An unexpected declaration of freedom and independence by Alessandro Michele, the new creative director of the Maison and former right-hand man of Frida Giannini. Contemporary style provides for a new beginning from new worlds in progress. Slippersmoccasins covered in fur, ballerina flat shoes with multiple laces and with half a heel, squared, paired to bags with chain featuring geometric lines, wool hats with a pompom and Victorian style jewels.

Una inaspettata dichiarazione di libertà e indipendenza di Alessandro Michele, nuovo direttore creativo della Maison ed ex braccio…

Acne Studios chose the iconic setting of the Centre Pompidou to present a collection that amazes its loyal fans with unexpected risks, where street style inspirations and references to upcycling replace the typical minimalism of the Swedish brand. Clutch and maxi bags that combine leather of different colours and finishes, openly declare their two-dimensional origin through contrast edging; the same goes for the belts, that turn and knot and then slip on the side with the fluidity of a sash. Organic accents affect the geometric rigour: just like the jewellery, which invade the space in pseudo-mining structures, or the tight boots cut below the ankle, supported by sculptural heels shaped like bark. Acne Studios ha scelto l’iconica cornice del Centre Pompidou per presentare al pubblico una collezione che stupisce i…

The Chloé girl has grown up and accepts the challenge of the male stereotype: having abandoned her ethereal lace, she is a stubborn defender of femininity without preconceptions. Leather, in all its infinite variety, meets gentle rounded lines, strictly intertwined laces and details with a gentle touch. In the glare of the seventies, the enchanting poetry of emancipation resurfaces. La ragazza Chloé cresce ed accetta la sfida allo stereotipo maschile: abbandonati i pizzi eterei, si erge paladina di una caparbia femminilità priva di preconcetti. La pelle, in tutte le sue infinite varianti, incontra la dolcezza delle linee arrotondate, di lacci rigorosamente intrecciati e dettagli dal tocco gentile. Nel riverbero degli anni Settanta riemerge l’incantevole poesia dell’emancipazione.…

Lanvin leads the futuristic tale of a Berber adventuress to the catwalk. The details of North African inspiration emerging everywhere, between decisive tailoring and a colour palette that is disinclined to compromise. There are golden hues that colour the skin, strips that wrap and tassels that hang, there is the wrinkling of snakeskin and the rugged surface of a shaggy goat, wide slopes and mysterious armours; there are jewels that evoke talismanic gifts of ancient oracles. There is, after all, a rich array of formal icons, inspired by tradition to be projected beyond the present, spurious of any unnecessary nostalgic influence. There is the courage of a director, Alber Elbaz, who prefers verisimilitude to perfection, the impression of a bold caesura to emulation. Lanvin porta in passerella il racconto futuristico…

A riot of colours of the rainbow stolen from the tail of a peacock who is a glutton for jellies... It is a psychedelic world that inhabited by Manish Arora and by his urban and exotic warrior. Feathered jewels decorate her face, helmets and armour protect her, skull bags warn against death; but she hides a secret weapon: a demigod perched on her shoulder. Un tripudio di colori rubati all’arcobaleno dalla coda di un pavone ingordo di gelatine alla frutta… E’ un mondo psichedelico quello abitato da Manish Arora e dalla sua guerriera metropolitana ed esotica. Gioielli piumati le decorano il volto, elmetti e corazze la proteggono e borse teschio la mettono in guardia contro la morte; ma lei nasconde un’arma segreta: un semidio appollaiato sulla spalla.…

Stella McCartney draws soft and elegant feminine silhouettes. Strictly made of faux leather, boots and sandals stretch forward on sculptural heels and gentle shapes. Pearls are sinuously wrapped around the necklines whereas coloured bauble bloom on the clutch bags. The palette is that of a Flemish painting: emerald green, gold and burgundy draping over grades of grey and shiny brocades. Stella McCartney disegna silhouette femminili morbide ed eleganti. Stivaletti e sandali, rigorosamente in finta pelle, si protendono in avanti su tacchi scultura, con forme gentili. Le perle si avvolgono in giri sinuosi attorno al décolleté e sulle clutch sbocciano sfere colorate. La palette è quella di un quadro fiammingo: drappeggi verde smeraldo, oro e bordeaux, su scale di grigio e lucenti broccati.…

The Autumn/Winter collection is dominated by one rule: there are no rules. The quirky original clothes and accessories are inspired by wild nature in Iceland with its extreme contrasts and its sublime power. The Vionnet woman accessorises her outfits with golden tusks, crystal clusters, layers of maxi necklaces. The classic Mosaic Bag becomes a wheelie for easier travelling while the leathers of the clutch bags are subjected to every kind of surface treatment, from rippling and cracking to metallic shimmers. Regal postures over transparent lucite heels, wrapped in over the knee leather boots skin or even trapped in fascinating and intriguing games of straps that unfold from flat shoes and sandals. La collezione Autunno/Inverno è dominata da un’unica regola: non ci sono regole. Abiti ed accessori di stravagante originalità sono…

Minimalism of forms, characterized by a tenuous sobriety, counterpoints the elaborate refinement of surface treatments, declined in shades of vaguely sepia grey. The flap clutches assume any size and texture; jewels flow like rivulets of crystallized rain, while equally slender structures hold up leather ankle boots like wader birds. Al minimalismo delle forme, contraddistinte da una tenue sobrietà, fa da contrappunto l’elaborata ricercatezza dei trattamenti superficiali, declinati nelle sfumature di un grigio vagamente seppiato. Le pochette a patta assumono ogni dimensione e consistenza; i gioielli scorrono come rivoli di pioggia cristallizzata, mentre altrettanto esili strutture sorreggono tronchetti in pelle da trampoliere.…

The Japanese designer confesses again her illustrator aspirations, with a collection that stands on the proven balance between a stereotypical retro femininity and confidence in interstellar progress. Iconic clutch bag, glasses elegantly shaped and tapered shoes of varying heights, combine the saturated colours of De Stijl with pearly shades of contemporary manga. La stilista giapponese confessa ancora una volta le sue aspirazioni d’illustratrice, con una collezione che regge sul collaudato equilibrio tra una stereotipata femminilità retrò e la fiducia nel progresso interstellare. Iconiche pochette, occhiali elegantemente sagomati e calzature affusolate di altezza variabile, combinano i colori saturi del De Stijl con le sfumature perlate di un manga contemporaneo.…

3.1 Phillip Lim makes a statement of real deconstruction for its 10th anniversary. A continuing conversation between discipline and disorder is the leitmotif of the collection: the recurring motif is the straps firmly fastened around a shoe or slipping along the body. Metropolitan hints with an almost punk touch are found in the fabrics not always finely trimmed but that accentuate the idea of movement when used for elegant garments. Al suo 10° anniversario 3.1 Phillip Lim si trova a fare una vera e propria decostruzione. Una continua conversazione tra disciplina e disordine sono il filo conduttore della collezione mentre il motivo ricorrente sono le cinghie, saldamente allacciate intorno ad una scarpa o lasciate scivolare lungo il corpo. Accenni metropolitani con un tocco quasi punk si ritrovano in tessuti non…

The Jason Wu woman is strong and seductive. Strong because of the assertive cuts, seductive because of the streamlined silhouettes. A grown-up woman who elegantly wears pearls and fur collars but at the same time wears shoes with details that make her aggressive and self-confident. Assertive colour combinations where red stands out against ice grey and black highlights olive hues. Forte e seducente la donna di Jason Wu. Forte perché i tagli sono decisi, seducente perché le linee sono semplici. La donna di Wu è una donna che cresce e lo fa anche in eleganza, compaiono perle e colli di pelliccia, ma allo stesso tempo il dettaglio di un tacco di scarpa la rende aggressiva e sicura. Abbinamenti decisi in cui il rosso staglia sul grigio ghiaccio ed il nero…

Marc Jacobs draws inspiration from a beautiful picture by Jeremiah Goodman whose subject is Diana Vreeland, with a play of bright colours and austere details. The overall impact of the collection is in fact powerful, strong and severe, but at the same time suggesting a quiet sensuality. Accessories have a familiar flavour, revisited with a decided modern twist: mini studs seem like starry skies, crocodile skins and fur inserts enrich clutch or shorthandled bags for a retro and comfortable look. Strong sensual elegance that is made from patent leather high boots, long or short gloves and sheer stockings. The result is a harmonious blend of styles and eras to ‘give women what they do not yet know they want’ exactly as Diana claimed. Marc Jacobs trae ispirazione da un meraviglioso…

An elegant western flavour for this collection with soft garments and a few touches reminiscent of the Navajo. Fringed suede everywhere, on the ponchos, boots and bags. Even the fur is scattered here and there, fur hats and muffs take us back to the endless grasslands of a cold Wyoming. The colours resemble the soft brown of the fall season and the jewellery stands out with mother of pearl details. Sapore elegantemente western per questa collezione con morbidi capi e qualche tocco che ricorda i Navajo. Frange scamosciate ovunque, sui poncho, sugli stivaletti e sulle borse. Anche la pelliccia è sparsa qua e là, colbacchi e manicotti ci riportano alle sterminate praterie di un freddo Wyoming. I colori ricordano i tenui marroni della stagione alle porte dell’inverno e i gioielli…

Evolution and revolution for an urban collection that elegantly pays homage to exaggeration. Exaggerated lengths, stretched silhouettes with high waistlines, very long legs accentuated by platforms shoes and stilettos that seem to pierce the ground make the female figure very elongated. The shape of necklaces and bracelets refer to the infinity symbol. Colours veering towards contrast evoke a sense of evolution. Evoluzione e rivoluzione, una collezione urban che omaggia l’esagerazione in modo elegante. Lunghezze esagerate che rendono figure longilinee, silhouettes allungate da esagerate vite alte e gambe lunghissime accentuate da piattaforme e tacchi a spillo che sembrano infilarsi nel terreno. Forme di collane e bracciali che rimandano al simbolo dell’infinito. Anche i colori tendenzialmente in contrasto rimandano ad un senso di evoluzione.…

Electric blue and extravagant details, such as largerthan-life wedges, widening heels and tops with piercings, in contrast to an occasionally masculine woman. A street-chic look that takes us through the streets of New York with a pleasantly determined spirit. Exaggeratedly long sleeves and oversized clutches play with elegant shades of camel, but the eccentric touch is given by the terry socks, strictly DKNY, worn with stylish shoes. Blu elettrico e dettagli stravaganti come zeppe molto evidenti, tacchi allargati e piercing alle maglie, in contrasto con una donna a tratti mascolina. Un look street-chic che ci porta nelle vie di New York con uno spirito piacevolmente deciso. Maniche esageratamente lunghe e pochettes oversize in eleganti toni del cammello, ma il tocco eccentrico lo danno i calzini in spugna rigorosamente targati DKNY…

Where the hourglass dresses only aim to accentuate the sinuous female, the coats seem designed to harmonize the whole. Simple and well-coordinated accessories give the collection that sought-after touch you expect from Victoria Beckham. Envelope bags are soft in perfect tune with the outfit, embellished with a lightweight metal handle and leather boots of a very elegant simplicity accompany the collection. Dove gli abiti a clessidra puntano esclusivamente ad accentuare le sinuosità femminili, i cappotti sembrano studiati per armonizzare il tutto. Gli accessori semplici e ben coordinati alla collezione danno il tocco ricercato che ci si aspetta da Victoria Beckham. Buste morbide in perfetto tono con l’outfit, impreziosite da un leggero manico in metallo e stivaletti in pelle di una semplicità molto elegante accompagnano la collezione.…

Hey world, here I am! Fun and noticeable accessories, but still elegant, those chosen by Anya Hindmarch who has revisited some great classics with extreme irony, one neck warmer closed by the icon of a road sign or a smiley. Trunks decorated with the signs of work in progress, as if to introduce a woman who works hard, but who still knows how to be chic. The colours are clear and their combinations vivid, obviously without ever falling into banality Mondo Sono qui! Accessori divertenti ed evidenti, ma comunque eleganti, quelli scelti da Anya Hindmarch che con estrema ironia ha rivisitato alcuni grandi classici, uno scalda collo chiuso dall’icona stradale di un divieto o uno smile. Bauletti decorati con i cartelli dei lavori in corso, quasi ad affermare una donna…

Kaleidoscopic, so you might define this collection. A Fulton who pays tribute to the most beautiful Art Deco and through images draws a confident woman who wants to be noticed, but especially a woman who is ready to jump into the wildest night. Details repeated endlessly on elegant necklines or handbags that seem to change with every step, like in an old kaleidoscope. Caleidoscopica, così si potrebbe definire questa collezione. Una Fulton che rende omaggio alla più bella Art Deco e che attraverso le immagini richiama una donna sicura e che vuole farsi notare, ma soprattutto una donna pronta a buttarsi nella serata più sfrenata. Dettagli ripetuti all’infinito su décolleté eleganti o su handbags che sembrano mutare ad ogni passo, come in un vecchio caleidoscopio.…

In a postmodern ice age where no one knows what direction the world has taken, everyone would like to have a piece of the Hunter Original collection, whether a synthetic fur maxi handbag or a neoprene boot with flamboyant touches. The lines are simple, but the combinations of colours and materials refer to future scenarios. The warm tones of orange and ochre contrast with the darkest blacks and most intense greys. Some details of this collection cannot go unnoticed, like the thermos holder with shoulder strap or the shoes with fur details, or the interesting folds on soft rubber shoes and boots. Everything is surrounded by a sort of aura of rigor that is lightened by the softness of down jackets and warm colours. In un’era glaciale postmoderna dove non…

Simple, sophisticated, sleek, soft. The soft tones and soft fabrics chosen by the designer do not corrupt the sensual impact of the models. Safety is emphasized by unusual details, like a curled waistline that does not hide the silhouette, and rounded soles of soft leather moccasins. The eccentric and pleasant touch is given by the soft fur in soft colours like pink and grey, all the way to white. Semplice, sofisticata, sinuosa, soft. I toni pacati e i morbidi tessuti scelti dalla designer non corrompono l’impatto sensuale dei modelli. La sicurezza viene enfatizzata da dettagli inusuali, come una vita arricciata, ma che non nasconde le silhouette, e i carri armati stondati di mocassini in morbida pelle. Il tocco eccentrico e piacevole è dato dalle soffici pellicce in colori tenui come…

A collection with very soft tones, for both the softness of fabrics and tailoring and for the colours. From the warmest pink to the softest grey, all the way to a washed Scottish tartan. The delicacy of the collection is also reflected on the accessories, never exaggerated, never disrespectful, but comfortable, simple and elegant. The faceted jewels are also ultra linear, rather than standing out from the outfit, they decorate it beautifully. Una collezione dai toni decisamente soft, sia per la morbidezza dei tessuti e delle linee che per i colori. Dal rosa carne ai grigi più tenui per arrivare ad uno scozzese slavato. La delicatezza della collezione si riflette anche sugli accessori, mai esagerati, mai irriverenti, ma comodi, semplici ed eleganti. Super lineari anche i gioielli sfaccettati, che non…
