At the MoMa in New York, the retrospective of the great American artist, Robert Rauschenberg, will be showing. Organized in collaboration with the Tate Modern in London, the exhibition, entitled “Robert Rauschenberg among friends”, brings together more than 250 works that unite the various mediums used by the artist during his long career, such as paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, photography, sound-art, and performance, demonstrating that he still remains one of the most important names in the history of art. The exhibition will then be transferred to the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA), in order to give a greater number of visitors the opportunity to enjoy one of the most productive and conceptual artists of the 20th century. From May 21st to September 17th, 2017. Al MoMa di New…

In Paris, right now, the highly anticipated exhibition ‘Balenciaga, l’oeuvre au noir”. In 1938, shortly after the opening of his fashion house in La Ville Lumière, Harper’s Bazaar described the black used by the great couturier Cristóbal Balenciaga as “a thick, Spanish, almost velvety black: it is a starless night that rather than black looks almost grey”. Almost eighty years after, I felt almost the same impression when observing the seventy outfits on display at the Musée Bourdelle, side by side to, almost leaning on, the white marble and bronze statues that make the creations by the Spanish designer stand out even more. Black, the non-colour, serves as a common thread through the entire exhibition, the same non-colour that was Balenciaga’s passion throughout his career, a reminder of the Iberian…

As in the Highlands, we wear the family tartans in homage to the tradition of the finest Scottish society. Bon chic bon genre versions, revised with classic flair or reinterpreted in the style of the most irreverent fashion designers, tartan enters into the autumn and winter wardrobes and shares the stage with classic menswear fabrics like Prince of Wales check as well as herringbone and tweed gently unstructured à la Chanel, which is now a common heritage. No gender. Come nelle Highlands indossiamo il nostro tartan di famiglia, in omaggio alla tradizione dell’alta società scozzese. Versione bon ton o rivisto con estro, classico o interpretato nello stile dei fashion designer più irriverenti, entrerà comunque e prepotentemente nel guardaroba invernale condividendo il palcoscenico con le classiche disegnature maschili: principe di Galles,…

Delete, forget, abandon everything to draw on a blank sheet of paper. But what? Unexpected perspectives simply arrive and gradually delineated themselves by taking unpredicted shapes. Remove and subtract to get to the synthesis and to the core and then start again to set up a new discourse. All the potential of freedom of expression opens in front of an infinite screen. We are spoiled for choice, but just for a moment, about what to select and how to start. Only brand new style codes, from raw materials manipulated at will to proportions to be redesigned. Candour and pureness. Eliminare, dimenticare e abbandonare tutto per disegnare su un foglio bianco, cosa? Prospettive inattese, che arrivano semplicemente così, e si delineano mano a mano, prendendo forme inaspettate. Togliere, sottrarre per giungere…

www.ludmilakislenko.com The basis of the Ludmila Kislenko a/w 2017/18 collection are futuristic transformer reversible down jackets, most of them with detachable sleeves, collars, hoods and pockets. Various transformation options are available: the jacket turns into a vest, into a long coat, into a short cloak as one colour is replaced by another. The collection is distinguished by complex non-standard cuts, by original decorative details, by the combination of different textures. A great combination of style and functionality! Alla base della collezione a/i 2017/18 firmata Ludmila Kislenko i futuribili e trasformisti piumini double face, la maggior parte con maniche, colli, cappucci, tasche rimovibili. Tantissime le opzioni a disposizione visto che il piumino si può trasformare in gilet, in cappotto lungo, in mantellina con la stessa facilità con cui una tonalità di…

Elegantly and apparently simple. The prêt-à-porter collection designed by Pier Paolo Piccioli without Maria Grazia Chiuri, now at Dior. Dresses are fluid with austere lines, Victorian, as we are used to seeing the past few seasons. Long and high-necked, they grant themselves little quirks, such as micro and marco lace trimmings, pleats, and graphic prints. Then the velvets, always printed, shiny, soft, silky, and romantic. Elegantemente e apparentemente semplice la collezione di prêt-àporter disegnata da Pier Paolo Piccioli senza Maria Grazia Chiuri, ora da Dior. Sono abiti fluidi dalla linea severa, vittoriana, come siamo abituati a vedere da qualche stagione, lunghi e accollati, si concedono piccoli vezzi quali micro e macro guarnizioni in pizzo, plissettature e stampe grafiche. E poi i velluti, sempre stampati, lucidi, morbidi, setosi, romantici.…

There are special collections in special places, like that by Undercover, held in Paris in the legendary Salle Wagram, witness to the most beautiful fashion shows of the 90s. Jun Takahanshi, the brand’s art director, reveals his oneiric side. Like in a show on stage with fantastic animals, movements are slow, as in a performance, becoming a fashion show. Baroque atmospheres, trimmings and damask, endless coats and rounded bomber jackets. Oversized sweaters worn over strictly houndstooth pants. The Japanese designer also boasts collaborations with Uniqlo. Oftentimes, one must escape from rationality. Ci sono collezioni speciali, in luoghi speciali, come quella di Undercover che si è tenuta a Parigi, nella mitica Salle Wagram, che ha visto le sfilate più belle degli anni Novanta. Jun Takahanshi, l’art director, svela il suo lato…

“Grow Deep” by Geoffrey B. Small continued the ultra-advanced research development of classic handmade besom welt-pocket design and construction techniques from the ‘secrets’ men’s Paris a/w 2017/18 collection and took the interior part of the pocket and brought it to the outside of the garment. Then, as if it were an organic, living organism such as a plant, flower or vine... the pockets were allowed to grow and expand far beyond normal pocket size dimensions and shapes, eventually forming the basis of the actual form and structure of the garments themselves - testament to the continuously rising levels of the firm’s extreme handmade tailoring technologies. “Grow Deep” di Geoffrey B.Small continua a sviluppare la ricerca ultra-avanzata sulle classiche tasche a filetto circolare realizzate a mano e sulle tecniche di costruzione…

Morbidi pellami, cotoni leggeri, lini grezzi, lane a pelo lungo con texture gessate e tonalità polverose ottenute attraverso tecniche come stone washing e tintura a freddo per una collezione che combina con successo codici di stile contrastanti come il sartoriale tradizionale e lo streetwear urbano. Come di consueto, anche ’Collection 9 & 26’ è originale, propositiva e basata su un approccio al fashion design tipicamente nordico e d’avanguardia. E, come sempre, Barbara invita le sue clienti a sperimentare con la stratificazione dei capi facendo abbinamenti assolutamente personali e quindi unici. Soft washed leathers, light cottons, raw linens, longhaired wools with chalk-coated textures and dusty tones, obtained through stone washing and cold dyeing for a collection that successfully combines clashing style codes like traditional tailoring and urban streetwear. This pretty much…

Le eroine indie della fine degli anni 70 di New York rivivono in una collezione intrigante e dalla forte personalità, un guardaroba dedicato a donne dallo spirito libero, forti e intraprendenti, come Meryl Streep e Shelley Duvall. Tradotto in un’ottica contemporanea, il loro atteggiamento spensierato assume le sembianze di silhouette morbide, con dettagli romantici, nei toni polverosi dal bianco sporco al giallo burro, calendula, menta pallido, carminio, cannella e grigio argento. Giacche e cappotti dal taglio impeccabilmente sartoriale, pantaloni corti boot-cut in tweed e altri materiali preziosi e materici, grembiuli d’antan e pizzi effetto vedo-non-vedo. The indie heroines of the late 1970s in New York live again in an intriguing collection with a strong personality.

Per l’autunno 2017 Romona Keve�a Collection ci trasporta alla Ville Lumiere e in particolare alla maestosa bellezza dell’iconico Hotel Le Meurice.

The warm glow of crystal chandeliers and the grand dining room’s rich tones of deep silver and molten gold…

Gli ampi, caldi, avvolgenti maglioni sono obbligatoriamente oversized. Grandi, anche esageratamente. Intarsi, punti diversi, micro e macro strutture vanno ad inventare nuovi effetti. Poi accenni etnici, trecce classiche, ma non troppo, frange agli orli, un mixare le righe e le disegnature geometriche, vanno a definire l’universo firmato Antonio Marras, cosi speciale. Le mantelline jacquard o dai grandi ricami si sovrappongono a giacche ed abiti floreali in un crescendo di armonie cromatiche autunnali. Big, warm, and enveloping oversized sweaters are a must. Even excessively big. Inlays, different stitching, and micro and macro structures invent new effects. Ethnic accents, classic braids - but not too many - fringes on hems, a mix of stripes and geometric patterns define the universe that is Antonio Marras. So special. Shoulder capes in jacquard, or with…

La felice unione di forme a palloncino, giochi intricati di pieghe, linee minimaliste. Volumi e silhouette ingegnosamente lineari accompagnate da un’appagante abbondanza di dettagli come le tasche posteriori e le zip laterali sulle gonne a forma di tulipani in procinto di sbocciare. Gessati e altri nobili tessuti classici, per lo più in toni del nero. Queste caratteristiche sottolineano il messaggio della collezione a/i 2017/18 firmata Rundholz, messaggio che si potrebbe forse riassumere con queste parole: ‘un’interpretazione giocosa della femminilità con la giusta dose di tocchi maschili’. P.O. The successful combination of balloon shapes, intricate games of folds, understated straight lines. The volumes and silhouettes are ingeniously streamlined and yet there is a fulfilling richness of details like, for example, the back pockets and side zips on skirts shaped as beautiful…

One of the latest hotshots of the Paris fashion week is doubtlessly Noir Kei Ninomiya, the brand designed by the Japanese Kei Ninomiya which markets a product that is practically non-existent in the fashion world. Indeed, it is more related to pure creativity than to the usual meaning attributed to fashion or clothing. Kei Ninomiya begins his career under the guidance of Rei Kawakubo - the almost mythical founder and designer of Comme des Garçons - where he learnt the ropes and all the tricks of the trade directly from one of the greatest fashion designers of all time. Ninomiya launches his brand - called Noir Kei Ninomiya - in 2012 and, since then, hasn’t stopped surprising the international press with something that goes well beyond fashion, showing garments that…

Spring/Summer 2018 according to Swarovski focuses on four New Perspectives trends: ‘Gang Star’, ‘No Normal’, ‘Hacked Nature’ and ‘Spell Bound’. ‘Gang Star’ tells of the hard look of urban landscapes inspired by hip-hop culture and by gangstarap where Skull Flat Back is a perfect match for the most daring styles and Crystal Iridescent Blue Pearl underlines a dynamic unisex streetwear. ‘No Normal’ interprets the revolution of values in which old categories are marginalised in favour of diversity in view of more inclusive visions. In the Chris Bangle Designer Edition range the new Tilted Chaton, Tilted Spike and Tilted Dice Fancy Stones are suitable for pendants, rings, earrings, elaborate textile creations while Pyramid, Square and Flat Back Base from the Square Family range offer endless variations for surface effects. Sustainability, as…

Nature speaks to us. The wood tells of autumnal stories expressing itself with colours as it conquers us with its scents, with the intense aromatic smell of pine trees, with the flavour of mushrooms, with the underground moisture of moss and undergrowth. A rarefied environment where the morning mist and the thin fog engulf everything. A magical muffled world where it is easy to get carried away by softly suffused tones, warm and inviting or cold and drizzly, to then retreat back into a warm shelter by a warm fireplace. Suggestive shimmers.…

In all its shades, from the most neutral tones to the deeper ones, beige create its own world. With great freedom of choice and of thought, it can either paint autumnal trench coats and wide enveloping overcoats, weave bulky yarns into mesh baskets, wrap chic interiors with a sophisticated atmosphere, characterise design objects by highlighting the accuracy of their designs. So simple, so ductile, so transformative with a tremendous intrinsic versatility. Stylish.…

Virgil Abloh, artistic director at Off White, changes image and offers us one of a sweet woman, with romantic accents. In line with new themes in trends, a series of garments in Glencheck interpreted by women. Jackets are always short, skirts are tight with generous slits, next to sober coats with impeccable lines. Jeans become softer, still treated, with special techniques. Transparencies, macro sequins, and a hint of silver, extremely delicate. Very interesting, and not just in the color combinations. The American architect will present his menswear collection and womenswear pre-collection at the next edition of Pitti Uomo. An event not to be missed. Virgil Abloh, il direttore artistico di Off White, cambia immagine e ci propone una donna più dolce, dagli accenni romantici. In linea con i nuovi temi…

An eclectic designer, who never ceases to amaze with her special effects. Yet, in this collection, everything is more peaceful, even if more intense. Inspiration is the Disney cartoon, “Fantasia”, with extreme finesse. Floral patterns are mixed with masculine fabrics. Glencheck, as dictated by the new season. Overchecked coats have big fur collars and important appliqués. Outfits select brocades with many colors, and a thousand crystals for eveningwear. Una designer eclettica, che non finisce di stupire con i suoi effetti speciali. Ma in questa collezione, tutto è più pacato anche se sempre intenso. L’ispirazione è tratta dal cartone animato “Fantasia” di Disney, con estrema delicatezza. Le fantasie floreali si mixano con i tessuti maschili, i pied-de-poule, come vuole la nuova stagione, i cappotti finestrati hanno grandi colli di pelliccia e…

www.irynadil.com.ua The A/W 2017 by Iryna Dil is a story about an indissoluble connection between a human and nature, filled with forest freshness and natural silhouettes. As always the collection fascinates with botanical prints and unusual embroideries. The combinations of the different textures of the materials are skilfully balanced by the concise and crisp lines of the clothes. A season during which the Iryna Dil woman is strong and self-confident but at the same time tender and mysterious like nature itself of which she is becoming part. La collezione a/i 2017/18 di Iryna Dil racconta la storia della connessione indissolubile tra un essere umano e la natura. Fresca come una foresta e ricca di forme naturali, la collezione, come sempre, affascina grazie alle stampe a soggetto botanico e agli insoliti…

Fashions goes out of style. Style remains. It has no age. The message that Van Noten launches with next winter’s collection - the hundredth in over 25 years - is clear and unequivocal, favored by the cast of stellar supermodels that have treaded catwalks for the past 20 years: from Amber Valletta to Nadja Auermann. A perfect wardrobe for all generations made of printed coats, masculine suits, layers with a folk essence, and a chromatic alchemy that pertains to just a few designers. All iconic pieces by the brand, which recount its astonishing evolution. Le mode passano, lo stile resta. E non ha età. Il messaggio che Van Noten lancia con la collezione dedicata al prossimo inverno, la centesima in oltre 25 anni di attività, è chiaro e inequivocabile, complice…

The Japanese fashion designer worked under the aegis of the iconic Rei Kawakubo - creator of Comme des Garçons - with an effect on his aesthetic vision, even if along different paths. This season, his starting point is Scottish heritage in a punk version, almost an obsession. The versions of different tartans overlap, producing very short kilts to wear over macro fishnet, expertly torn. Short overcoats and tunics in a patchwork of various materials, collected from vintage flea markets. From upholstery velvet to animal prints and, obviously, the king of the season: houndstooth, creating a wonderful collage to be worn. An art. Il fashion designer giapponese, ha lavorato sotto l’egida dell’iconica Rei Kawakubo, ideatrice di Comme des Garçons e la sua visione estetica ne rimane influenzata, anche se percorre strade…

An exigent collection that uses masculine fabrics, such as Glencheck, in its most classic version. From Victorian romanticism, which inspired the summer collection, here we reach a decisive androgynous concept. Jackets caress the body with their calibrated volumes - only shoulders are slightly sustained - worn over boyish short shorts. Capes and coats alternate, with overall lengths. Inevitable are the shirts with ruffled collars. Una collezione rigorosa che utilizza un tessuto maschile, come il principe di Galles, nella sua versione più classica, così dal romanticismo vittoriano, che aveva ispirato la collezione estiva si approda ad un deciso concetto androgino. Le giacche accarezzano il corpo con i loro volumi calibrati, solo le spalle sono leggermente sostenute, s’ indossano sopra a calzoncini molto corti, da ragazzino. Le mantelle si alternano ai cappotti…

Nelle stanze delle meraviglie, come quelle dell’antica Libreria Casciannelli o l’antica Spezieria di Santa Maria della Scala, luoghi incantevoli di Roma, in perfetta armonia ecco incredibili outfit nati dall’immaginario di Alessandro Michele, che ama mixare, aggiungere, massimizzare ogni concetto moda, rendendo il suo caos creativo, assolutamente personale. Colori forti a contrasto, disegnature improbabili, eccessi di applicazioni, di accessori, però togliendo una cosa alla volta, che sia un enorme fiore in seta, che siano calze griffate o un fiocco, si arriva al dunque, che mai sarà sobrio, ma da desiderare subito. Magia. Enchanting places in Rome. In wonder rooms, like those of the old Cascianelli Bookstore or the Pharmacy of Santa Maria della Scala, in an harmony that is quite perfect, here are the incredible outfits created from Alessandro Michele’s imagination.…

Le creazioni della stilista giapponese Kei Yoshida sono frutto di una ricerca appassionata, la maglieria non ha alcun segreto per lei. I cardigan utilizzano filati diversi in tonalita diverse, creando effetti suggestivi e perfettamente armonici. Linee squadrate e pure per le maglie bicolore, mentre il classico maglione stile Aran viene riveduto e corretto, per inventare una nuova vestibilita, trasformandosi in mantellina. Le giacche a punto pelliccia si fanno super morbide e avvolgenti per un caldo abbraccio. Il giallo pulcino e l’albicocca, fra i colori amati. The creations by Japanese designer Kei Yoshida are the result of a passionate research. As knitwear has no secret for her, cardigans are created using different yarns in different shades for suggestive and perfectly harmonious effects. Pure square shapes for the two-colour knits while the…

Volumi fluidi, per sottolineare l’attitudine disinvolta e sofisticata di capi che seguono i movimenti del corpo, senza costrizioni. Stampe geometriche squarciano gli abiti come se fossero tele bianche, con incursioni di rosso acceso, verde smeraldo, bluette, anche in versione cangiante. Un tributo all’eleganza e al savoir-faire, silhouette impeccabili che definiscono tagli preziosi, autentici piccoli capolavori di sartoria da indossare con disinvoltura. Fluid volumes emphasize the nonchalant, sophisticated attitude of pieces that flow with every move of the body, without constraints. Geometric prints rend dresses as if they were blank canvases, with incursions of flaming red, emerald green, royal blue, and even iridescent. A tribute to elegance and savoir-faire. Clean silhouettes that define exquisite cuts. Authentic tailor-made masterpieces to be casually worn. www.armani.com…

“Non e ancora liberta, ma possibilita di liberta d’azione e di pensiero. In primo luogo, la liberazione dalla necessita di una valutazione costante, in secondo luogo il guardarsi intorno, anche oltre l’orizzonte. C’e ancora qualcosa che devo fare, eppure apprezzo quello che sono in grado di fare”. Con queste parole Kedziorek descrive la collezione autunno/inverno 2017/18. “It is not freedom yet, but already scope for freedom of thought and action. First, I became free from the need of constant evaluation. Then I look around, searching behind the horizon. There is still something I have to do, but I do appreciate how much I am able to”. With these words Kedziorek describes the Autumn/Winter 2017/18 collection. www.kedziorek.pl…

L’architettura è nel DNA di Delpozo. Le linee seguono la silhouette della figura femminile, le curve degli abiti con maniche piene, arrotondate creano nuovi spazi e volute in movimento. Fantasia e poesia in una collezione che è un’euforia di colore: fucsia, rosso, blu ceruleo e arancio, giocati in blocchi di colore, come vere e proprie architetture. L’amore per la natura ed i fiori si svela nei motivi di neoprene e pelle, rilievi e ricami che movimentano abiti, bluse, borse e persino le calzature, decoupage di abilissima, artigianale manifattura. Frange a cascata ed intarsi di colore per la maglieria. Architecture is in the DNA of Delpozo. Lines follow the silhouette of the female figure. The curves of dresses with full, rounded sleeves create new spaces and swirls in movement. Fantasy and…

“Viscerality is my perceptual mode. Simply spoken, it means that I want to touch everything that I love. Hopefully my pictures are a testimony to the love of the senses” reveals Larry Fink, the 76 years old American photographer best known for his images, mostly taken in the United States, of the Beat Generation, of the Jazz movement, of the upper classes, of people at social events. ‘The Beats and The Vanities, Larry Fink’ exhibition at the Armani/Silos exhibition space in Milan offers a rare opportunity to appreciate the work of this seminal artist thanks to 125 black and white photos, some taken from ‘The Beats’ book, most from ‘The Vanities’ volume. “As a designer I can empathise with the fluid way he captures light, shapes and lines... from the…

La Natura ci parla. Il bosco racconta l’autunno, si esprime con i colori, ci conquista con i suoi profumi, con l’intenso aromatico odore dei pini, con il sapore dei funghi, la sotterranea umidità dei muschi e del sottobosco. Un ambiente rarefatto nelle brume del mattino, nella nebbia sottile che pervade ogni cosa. Un mondo magico ed ovattato in cui è facile lasciarsi trasportare, dai toni sommessamente soffusi, caldi ed accoglienti o freddi e piovigginosi. Per ritirarsi poi nel rifugio del tepore di un caldo camino. Suggestivi bagliori.…

In tutte le sue sfumature il beige, dalle nuance neutre a quelle più profonde, raccoglie un mondo intorno a sé. Ampia libertà di scelte e di pensiero, può tingere indifferentemente trench autunnali come ampi avvolgenti cappotti, intrecciare voluminosi fili in canestri di maglia, oppure immergere di sofisticata atmosfera raffinati interni, caratterizzare oggetti di design sottolineandone l’accurata progettazione. Così semplice, così duttile, trasformista dalla intrinseca, formidabile versatilità. Stiloso.…

Distortions. Demna Gvasalia, the artistic director for Balenciaga, is a master of surprises. It is no coincidence that he is the most influential fashion designer of the moment, and his ideas are reproduced and run rampant in the fashion world, at the speed of light. He has something special to say. Coats in houndstooth, duffle coats, trench coats and parkas buttoned the “wrong” way, like children do when they dress for school and it’s cold out. A cool thing to do. Volumes are always macro. A great classic. Yet, not enough. On the catwalk, Haute Couture suggestions taken from the archives of the Maison. After all, the atelier has always been his first love. Distorsioni. Demna Gvasalia, alla direzione artistica del brand, è maestro dei colpi di scena, non a…

Maria Grazia Chiuri, the creative director for the Maison, is at her first challenge with ready-to-wear, and starts over from blue. The collection loves all its shades: from the sportswear to evening dresses, without a moment’s hesitation. For the first time on stage, denim that becomes pencil jeans, to be worn with Dior’s classic bar jacket, wellshaped and prominently bearing its label, also over work overalls. Long Pleated skirts and squared-off jackets. A real woman, very contemporary. Maria Grazia Chiuri, alla direzione creativa della Maison, è alla sua prima prova con il prêt-à-porter, e ricomincia dal blu.

Duchesse satin, velvets, and mosaics of sequins for a new collection designed by Johnny and Adrian. A collection that cavorts between innovation and classicism. A velvet outfit with a macro-skirt that rests on the waist. Black and white as the winning combination, designing a graphic image. A micro black dress flirts with sophisticated minimalism to wear, to invent an effect of contrasts, with cuissard boots that reach infinity. Femininity. Inserts, and not only net, as impressive details. Pure lines for evening dresses, almost geometric. Satin duchesse, velluti e mosaici di paillettes per una nuova collezione firmata da Johnny e Adrian, che danza fra innovazione e classicità. Così sul completo in velluto ecco una macro-gonna da appoggiare in vita, vincente il binomio bianco e nero, per progettare un’immagine grafica. Il micro…

www.luisbuchinho.pt Inspired by the Portuguese coastline, the Luís Buchinho Autumn/ Winter 2017 collection draws inspiration from cliffs, rocks, sand, from the lives of fishermen, from everything that tells the story of the sea and of maritime atmospheres and then translates it all into an ever so current metropolitan version. Elongated lines for overlaying and skirts over trousers express the will of establishing a combination of masculine and feminine elements while the leather pieces give character to the collection. Printed silks with patterns that recall clay movements and fishing nets. Colours glide from neutral tones to black, navy, anthracite and to bright hues of red and white. The season witnesses the debut of the sunglasses range. Ispirandosi alla costa litorale portoghese, Luís Buchinho per la sua collezione inverno 2017-18 trae spunto…

‘Transcend’, la collezione autunno/inverno 2017/18 firmata by Fang, riecheggia con toni soffusi l’opera e la vita del pittore Einar Wegener come esempio di libertà spirituale e dell’essere fedeli a se stessi e cattura con tocchi contemporanei la raffinatezza e la giocosa creatività dell’Art Déco. In un’evoluzione ciclica progressiva, la raffinatezza senza tempo di bluse in seta e di morbidi cappotti a uovo viene proiettata in espressioni di contemporaneità nelle stampe geometriche e nei dettagli decorativi multidimensionali. La sensuale eleganza femminile si fonde in modo coesivo con linee sartoriali di taglio maschile evidenziando la magnifica complessità del carattere di una donna indipendente. “Non è con il cervello, non con gli occhi, non con le mani che voglio essere creativo, ma con il cuore e con il sangue”, Einar Wegener. ‘Transcend’, the…

Si respira una certa aria anni Ottanta, per le spalle imbottite ben evidenti, sia negli abiti sia nelle giacche, che danno un allure imponente. Poi per la ricerca dei ricami, importanti, e per i colori che spaziano dall’azzurro polvere al verde. Un romantico accenno a tempi piu lontani, quelli vittoriani, ed ecco abitini in pizzo dai colletti guarniti con fiocchi e grandi fiori in seta, mentre i pantaloni riprendono le linea a zampa d’elefante, ma con misura. Per le serate ancora pizzi, ma in versione arabeschi, con effetti di trasparenze. A certain 80s air exudes. Well-padded shoulders, both for dresses and jackets, impart an impressive allure.
