The leitmotif of the new by FANG collection, aptly titled ‘Voyage’, is the spiritual journey of a woman inspired by ‘Out of Africa’ by Karen Blixen. Black and white reigns supreme in the optical prints and in the origami, which are deeply embedded in the brand DNA. The whole history of the by FANG maison is built on the experience of its founder, the designer Fang Yang, who embodies the figure of a cosmopolitan citizen of the world. Born and raised in China, Fang moved to Paris where she began her adventure as a fashion designer. The inspiration of her creations is her past, her roots, the Far East that are, however, interpreted in a contemporary key and with an approach that embraces and assimilates different cultures. The life in…

The love of nature is clearly evident in the garments of the new Isabel Sanchis collection. Floral prints reign supreme over precious fabrics and statement textures. Butterflies and flower buds appliqués tell the story of a strong refined woman who does not forget her past as a child and who peruses in wonder and admiration the world around her, always with a proclivity for high impact materials. The key word is lightness: ethereal dresses with a perfect fit express a specific sensitivity, delicacy and grace that enhance the femininity of the silhouette by painting an elegant figure that likes to be admired. Sheerness gives always measured sensuous effects by drawing the shapes and volumes of creations that wink to haute couture. The collection also includes dresses with architectural structures, shaped…

SYBILLA To write about Sybilla with a very limited amount of words is almost impossible. Just few facts for those few inattentive people who would lose out on one of the most important designers of the late 1980s and early 1990s. She is one of the founders of minimalist fashion: almost thirty years ago, together with Romeo Gigli, she changed womenswear by starting the minimalist trend that by the end of the 1990s reigned unchallenged over all of us and our wardrobes. The marvellous 2016 collection is impossible to summarise. One step back in time but with a contemporary vision. I suggest to go to the brand official website: the readers will understand why to describe the work of the Spanish designer is an almost impossible task. Fairy tale, intelligence,…

Dries Van Noten confirms his being the master of colors and fabrics, both printed and not. The woman on his fashion show resembles some of the ’40s celebrities. Indeed, jackets have well-defined shoulders and an almost rétro elegance with amazing handcrafting characterized by large amounts of sequins and embroidery on colors such as purple, red, black and lilac. Thus the name Dries Van Noten remains a synonym for sophisticated elegance. Dries Van Noten dimostra ancora una volta di essere il maestro del colore e dei tessuti, stampati e non. Porta in passerella una donna che ricorda alcune dive anni ’40 con giacche dalle spalle ben definite e un’eleganza quasi rétro. Incredibili anche le lavorazioni con largo uso di paillettes e ricami uniti a colori come il porpora, il rosso, il…

A ‘Crash and Repair’ approach, i.e. creating something entirely new by repairing something broken, is the foundation of the latest Christopher Kane collection. Bold colours and Pop art shapes alongside splatter multicolour prints and geometric PVC plastic inserts together with lace panels and long colourful silk fringes are masterfully combined into an exquisite and coherent collection. L’ultima collezione di Christopher Kane è basata sull’approccio ‘Crash and Repair’, ovvero la creazione di qualcosa di nuovo tramite la riparazione di una cosa rotta. Colori vivaci e forme Pop, stampe a spruzzi multicolore e inserti geometrici di plastica PVC, pannelli di pizzo e lunghe frange di seta colorata: elementi discordanti magistralmente uniti in una collezione squisitamente coerente.…

An abundance of different themes converge into a collection with a number of key elements of the Vivienne Westwood aesthetic vocabulary in a new upgraded version. From exquisitely simple softly draped dresses in solid colours to tailored looks with forest scenes borrowed from 16th century Flemish tapestries. The collection is also an encouragement to live a life that “mirrors the world”. Una nuova e aggiornata versione di numerosi elementi chiave del vocabolario estetico convergono in una collezione che vuole essere anche un incoraggiamento a vivere in maniera tale da “essere uno specchio del mondo”. Dalla semplicità degli abitini tinta unita abilmente drappeggiati, alla complessità dei look sartoriali con scene forestali prese in prestito da arazzi fiamminghi del 16esimo secolo.…

With her MiuMiu line Miuccia Prada succeeds in showing last and still leaving everyone speechless. She does this thanks to wonderful jacquard coats, brightly coloured fur wraps, longuette garments unseen for years and unexpected tulle transparencies. Miuccia Prada con il suo marchio Miu Miu riesce nella missione quasi impossibile di sfilare per ultima lasciando comunque tutti senza parole. Lo fa grazie a meravigliosi cappotti jacquard, stole in pelliccia dai colori accesi, longuette come non si vedevano da anni e trasparenze inaspettate in tulle.…

One of the most touching shows of the week, full of dreams, horses, gigantic ties, red or white enormous balloons and a very young boy looking the double of Simon Porte Jacquemus. The clothes shown were just perfect: double jackets, jackets looking like short dresses and an awesome pinstriped suit with white and red applications looking like dots. Jacquemus is probably the voice in fashion that we had been expecting for years. Una della sfilate più toccanti della settimana, piena di sogni, cavalli, cravatte giganti, enormi palloni rossi o bianchi e un ragazzino che sembra il sosia dello stilista Simon Porte Jacquemus. I modelli presentati sono semplicemente perfetti: giacche doppie, blazer che somigliano a miniabiti, e un incredibile completo gessato dal taglio maschile con applicazioni rosse o bianche che assomigliano…

The collection by the Belgian duo A.F. Vandevorst is a trip from the East towards Antwerp aboard 25 roaring Harley Davidson and Triumph who arrived at Université Paris Descartes with as many models. A journey from east to west that transforms clothes similar to studded saris into studded black trousers and skirts. Military, Indian and Belgian references crash into each other in order to create one of the best collections of the entire Paris Fashion Week. La collezione del duo belga A.F. Vandevorst rappresenta un viaggio in moto dall’Oriente ad Anversa a bordo di 25 rombanti Harley Davidson e Triumph che sono arrivate all’Université Paris Descartes con a bordo altrettante modelle. E’ un viaggio da est a ovest che trasforma abiti simili a sahari borchiati in pantaloni e gonne nere…

For the new collection the duo created by Johnny Talbot and Adrian Runhof takes its inspiration from Marella Agnelli (Truman Capote’s legendary swan) and brings onto the catwalk creations made of superimpositions, ethereal printed fabrics. The colour palette includes, as well as black and white, bright blue and some geometric prints in light blue and clay. Il duo formato da Johnny Talbot e Adrian Runhof si ispira, per la nuova collezione, a Marella Agnelli (il mitico swan di Truman Capote) e porta in passerella creazioni fatte di sovrapposizioni e stampe su tessuti eterei. La palette colori (oltre al nero e al bianco) include il blu acceso e alcuni motivi geometrici che giocano con l’azzurro e l’argilla.…

A collection that enhances femininity with hippie chic hues. Crepe de chine and Calais lace are the raw materials for daywear, tulle and encrusted silk crepe shirt dresses and deluxe brocade garments in pastel tones for eveningwear. For truly special occasions an embroidered tulle safari jacket. A test of style for the fashion designer graduated at L’Ecole de la Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne.

E per le occasioni di gala una rivisitazione del sahari in tulle ricamato. Un prova di stile per lo stilista…

Here is the new name we were all waiting for, who can be ironic about the extremely serious fashion world and entertain us while forcing us to reflect. His name is Demna Gvasalia, he comes from Georgia and represents that avant-garde which knows how to bring into the same collection a flowery afternoon tea dress and an apron (also flowery) that seems made with a waxed tablecloth. At its third collection Vetements continues to strike the press and buyers by asking us to stop taking ourselves so seriously. Eccolo il nuovo nome che tutti aspettavano, capace di ironizzare sul serissimo mondo della moda divertendoci e facendoci riflettere. Si chiama Demna Gvasalia, è georgiano e rappresenta quella avant-garde capace di unire nella stessa collezione un abito a fiorellini per il thé…

La ragazza immaginata per indossare la collezione Red Valentino resort è dinamica e anticonformista, giocosa e ribelle, romantica e sognatrice. Vivace e spontanea, ama una mascolinità sottolineata dagli accessori, come le cravatte e le calzature stringate. Linee a trapezio, stampe grafiche, un sapore anni ’60 che ricorda Twiggy, i Beatles e i Beatnik. La pelle nera si sposa con il pizzo, tutto è calibrato, nessuna sbavatura nel gioco dei contrasti. The girl envisaged wearing the Red Valentino resort collection is dynamic and unconventional, playful and rebellious, romantic and sentimental. Lively and spontaneous, she loves a degree of masculinity emphasised by accessories like ties and lace-up shoes. Trapeze lines, graphic prints, a 60s flavour reminiscent of Twiggy, the Beatles and the beatniks. Black leather is combined with lace. Everything is calibrated.…

La stilista si ispira agli anni Settanta e all’iconografia infantile. Il mondo giocoso e gioioso dei bambini si riflette nelle stampe che rallegrano capi dalle linee morbide che presentano contrasti di texture. Maxi abiti patchwork si affiancano a tute in denim e trench. Un occhio attento alla qualità distingue la maison che utilizza seta prodotta con metodi rigorosamente artigianali a Soufli nel nord della Grecia. The designer was inspired by the 1970s and by childish iconography. The playful and joyful world of children is reflected in the prints that lighten up the garments with soft volumes and contrasting textures. Patchwork maxi dresses alongside denim jumpsuits and trench coats. A keen eye for quality distinguishes the fashion house that uses silks produced with strictly artisanal methods in Soufli, northern Greece. www.christina-economou.com…

Una nuova percezione di se stessi e un nuovo modo di esprimersi secondo gli stilisti del brand Sofia Nogard che immaginano il tempo libero come momento ideale per indossare capi dall’appeal sportivo, realizzati con materiali performanti dai tagli “aerodinamici”, in linea con le tendenze nei colori accesi, nelle righe e nei riflessi metallici. Le forme del corpo sono sottolineate, nonostante il comfort di un guardaroba che prevede anche capi classici. A new perception of ourselves and a new way to express ourselves according to the designers of the brand Sofia Nogard who imagine leisure time as an ideal time to wear clothes with a sportswear appeal, made with high-performance aerodynamic materials in on-trend bright colours with stripes and metallic flashes. Even if the body shapes are highlighted, the collection, which…

Decostruzioni e asimmetrie dettano un percorso fatto di concetti semplici ed efficaci. I capi sono tagliati e riassemblati con perizia chirurgica, senza sbavature, definiti nella loro apparente semplicità e modernissimi nei volumi e nelle suggestioni cromatiche. Silhouette contemporanee che si avvalgono di maxi dettagli, come le ampie tasche dal sapore militare. Games of deconstruction and asymmetry dictate a path of simple and effective concepts. The garments are flawlessly cut and reassembled with surgical expertise and defined in their evident and ultra modern simplicity by the volumes and chromatic choices. The contemporary silhouettes make use of maxi details like large pockets with a military flavour. www.acnestudios.com…

Parola d’ordine: pantaloni fluidi, molto morbidi,che scendono larghi, ispirazione Settanta, riveduta e corretta. La salopette in denim va a sottolineare lo stile dal sapore new hippy, ma con misura e assolutamente non didascalico. Completa il look la blusa dalla linea squadrata dal mood romantico, ed ecco motivi di pizzo o stampe ton sur ton. Altro revival: il bomber, un tocco di urban sport, dai dettagli ricercati. Grande classico di stagione l’animalier. Password: very soft fluid pants, wide at the bottom, a revised and corrected Seventies reference. Denim dungarees emphasise a style with a new hippie flavour, but with moderation and absolutely not like a carbon copy. The look is completed by boxy blouses with a romantic feel, with lacy patterns or tone-on-tone prints. Another revival: the bomber jacket for a…

La collezione Dip firmata Rundholz si distingue per le stampe dal particolare effetto della bassa risoluzione, come provenissero dal periodo del computer 8 bit, elaborate graficamente e tecnicamente per identificarsi con uno stile e un design unici. Speciali tecniche di tintura e nuove particolari finiture in gomma sono le caratteristiche principali della collezione. Le nuance metalliche catturano lo sguardo.

La contemporaneità incontra il savoir faire più tradizionale nella collezione dedicata alla prossima estate firmata Antonio D’Errico. L’approccio couture, che caratterizza intimamente il brand fin dalle origini, definisce capi preziosi e impeccabili nelle fisionomie, realizzati con materiali di eccelsa qualità riservando alla cura dei dettagli un’attenzione particolare.

La Casa dei Tre Oci in Venice presents the ‘Sguardo di Donna: from Diane Arbus to Letizia Battaglia, the Passion and the Courage’ exhibition curated by Francesca Alfano Miglietti. Three hundred works selected to guide the eye and the mind to a world that speaks of diversity, responsibility, compassion and injustices, often unspoken and hidden. An ambitious project that emphasises how photography in recent decades has become almost like a conscience for the world. The set-up is by Antonio Marras who created a scenography that takes the visitors inside the stories on the walls: an experience within the experience, in which even the staging becomes a fundamental part of the narration. 25 photographers, 25 stories, 25 different visions by women behind the lens in front of the world. From the…

Monet’s Impressionism will be alive again under the shadow of the Mole Antonelliana in Turin thanks to an exhibition at the Galleria Civica d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, which is already predicted that will attract a record number of visitors. Forty masterpieces will leave their habitual home, the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, and be transferred for four months to Italy in order to make locals and tourists experience the magic of a painter who made history. The Parisian museum of modern art, which houses the most important collection of works by Claude Monet, granted an outstanding loan. The truly special exhibition documents the career of the master and highlights its most significant moments, thanks to which the artist is considered the father of Impressionism. Particularly relevant is the loan of works…

COURRÈGES I just can’t help thinking that the relaunch of Courrèges must be one of the most difficult tasks for any designer as the brand is so difficult to contextualise in the 21st century because of its DNA so tightly tied up to early 1960s sci-fi. And yet Sébastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant put together a fresh, interesting, contemporary, collection that made me change my mind and, above all, understand a basic rule of fashion. If you are good you can revitalise even the most difficult of brands. The French designer duo chose 15 styles in 15 different fabrics worn by simple body mannequins, the equivalent of a blank paper. These guys are good and talented, plus they are also nice: their desire to work in the best possible way…

What Humberto Leon and Carol Lim have their reference woman do is a trip to the Riviera. Actually, it is their most geometric collection ever since they began collaborating with this Parisian brand characterized by clearly defined lines, squares, stripes and bands with different prints. Above all what strikes is the in-depth knowledge of the market this New Yorker duo has and the spontaneity with which they succeed in giving people what they expect. È un viaggio in Riviera quello che Humberto Leon e Carol Lim fanno compiere alla loro donna di riferimento. La collezione è la più geometrica dall’inizio della loro collaborazione con il marchio parigino fatta di linee ben definite, riquadri, righe e fasce con stampe differenti tra loro. Ciò che colpisce di più del duo newyorkese è…

Véronique Branquinho is one of the greatest professionals in the fashion arena. Even if she’s not a blockbuster name she’s considered one of the most interesting voices worldwide. In this collection she shows a romantic blindfolded young woman - submissive even - making these girls - apparently vulnerable - in white or black lace similar to Victorian mistresses. Véronique Branquinho è una delle grandi professioniste dell’arena della moda. Anche se non è molto conosciuta dal grande pubblico è vista dagli addetti ai lavori come una delle voci più interessanti del panorama internazionale; in questa collezione ci offre una donna romantica, quasi sottomessa che indossa una benda sugli occhi che rende queste fanciulle (apparentemente indifese) vestite in pizzo e chiffon bianco o nero simili a vere mistress vittoriane.…

A contemporary interpretation of romanticism, ingeniously based on the juxtaposition of natural and man-made materials. Softly constructed shapes and references to kimonos. A profusion of lace, tulle and other feather-light fabrics. Bejewelled bows and plastic ropes for intriguing details. Dusty pale shades of pink, pure white and black, a touch of nude, wine, tobacco and a splash of bright green. Un romanticismo contemporaneo magistralmente basato sull’uso di materiali naturali e artificiali. Forme costruite con delicatezza e allusioni al kimono. Una profusione di pizzi, tulle e tessuti impalpabili. Fiocchi con decorazioni gioiello e corde intrecciate di plastica. Tonalità polverose del rosa, bianco puro e nero, un tocco di color carne, mosto, tabacco e uno spruzzo di verde brillante.…

John Galliano plays with some of the archetypes typical of the Belgian brand which however he interprets in his own way. Thus the tennis player’s waistcoat of the ‘20s is studded, has worn out edges and is packaged in cellophane; the top matching the skirt is in foam rubber. Galliano continues his personal transformation of the brand and we hope he won’t shake up the DNA of this great maison too much. John Galliano gioca con alcuni archetipi del marchio belga, ma conditi in salsa propria. Quindi il gilet da tennista anni ’20 è borchiato, con i bordi consumati e impacchettato nel cellophane; il top da abbinare alla longuette è in gommapiuma. Galliano continua la sua opera di trasformazione del brand e noi ci auguriamo che non stravolga troppo il…

A mountain of delphiniums (a true mountain) welcomed the guests. The flowers have been the best backdrop for a collection conveying a sense of purity, femininity, fragility without sacrificing the impact and power of the outlooks shown. Raf Simons, master of minimalism, has given a great lesson about the concept of simplicity and the revival of the historical Bar jacket by Monsieur Christian Dior. Una montagna di delphinium (una vera montagna) ha dato il benvenuto agli ospiti della sfilata e i fiori sono stati il migliore degli sfondi possibili per una collezione che trasmette un senso di purezza, femminilità, fragilità senza sacrificare l’impatto e la forza dei modelli presentati. Raf Simons, maestro del minimalismo, ha dato una lezione sul concetto di semplicità e sulla riedizione della storica giacca Bar di…

Pure energy at Dolores Cortés with a funfilled and entertaining interpretation of the 1990s through extremely refined geometric cuts. Mesh textures and three-dimensional mix create elaborate structures. Materials play with layering, perforations, translucent effects. A glam-chic touch with golden laminated hues and lacquered tones. White, black, bright sorbet tones for animal prints and kinetic effect patterns with a powerful expressive force. Energia pura per Dolores Cortés che, nell’interpretazione umoristica e divertente degli anni ’90, si presenta estremamente ricercata nelle modellazioni geometriche. Textures di reti e mix tridimensionali creano elaborate strutture, i tessuti si muovono con sovrapposizioni, trafori, effetti traslucidi. Il tocco glam-chic è nei colori laminati oro, nei laccati, mentre bianchi, neri e luminosi toni sorbetto tingono stampe animalier ed effetti cinetici, dalla potente forza espressiva.…

Where does Stella McCartney’s reference woman? It’s hard to say since she’s global and indeed this proves the success of this Londoner fashion designer who gives evidence of her talent. She is renowned for the asymmetries and superimpositions that characterize her garments, but also some of her striped and checked outfits are definitely adequate. Da dove arriva la donna di riferimento di Stella McCartney? Difficile capirlo perché è globale e questo dimostra il successo della stilista londinese che dà una prova del suo talento. Le asimmetrie e le sovrapposizioni rimangono il piatto forte ma anche alcuni scacchi e capi rigati sono decisamente riusciti.…

According to the press release, the collection represents an encounter between Versailles and Abstraction. Giambattista Valli, the creative director, fully succeeds in illustrating this thanks to embroidered, rarefied light clothes that bring to mind the life of a country shepherdess so dear to Marie Antoinette. Secondo le note fornite dall’ufficiostampa la collezione rappresenta un incontro tra Versailles e l’Astrazione. Giambattista Valli, direttore creativo, è riuscito pienamente a rappresentare ciò grazie a rarefatti e leggeri abiti ricamati che riportano in mente la vita da pastorella di campagna tanto cara a Marie Antoinette.…

The latest Nino Babukhadia collection is inspired by a recent trip to Italy. Classicism, architecture, historic buildings with their extraordinary facades, the games of draping of marble statues, the baroque atmospheres of Sicily led to the creation of a series of garments that go beyond seasonal trends and define a unique personal style. Pure lines for long dresses and duster coats with crystal appliqués reminiscent of corals that light up the cream silks and recall the Italian sea. La collezione di Nino trae ispirazione dal suo recente viaggio in Italia. La classicità, l’architettura, i palazzi storici, le loro straordinarie facciate, i drappeggi marmorei delle statue e le atmosfere barocche della Sicilia l’hanno portata a costruire una serie di proposte, che vanno al di là delle tendenze stagionali e definiscono uno…

É una donna forte quella immaginata da Albert Elbaz, quella che non ringrazia mai. Ama mixare i colori forti e le fantasie, quindi sono righe e pois deformati, unico punto in comune una certa versione di verde che sa di coleottero. Satin duchesse per l’abitino rigido, alla semplicità della linea si contrappone una stampa geometrica, molto pittorica. I rossi sono in primo piano: al giubbotto sportivo si accompagna una gonna in paillettes, corta ed aderente, sexy. Immancabile l’abitino nero con grande fiocco per sere dedicate alla sobrietà. It’s a strong woman, the one imagined by Albert Elbaz, a woman who never says thanks. She loves to mix strong colours and patterns, so there are stripes and deformed polka dots; the only shared feature is a certain shade of beetle green.…

Sono abiti leggeri e dinamici, che rivisitano gli anni Settanta con un piglio disinvolto e contemporaneo. Tessuti leggeri, dotati di pattern dai richiami folk e preziosi bagliori dorati. Un po’ gipsy, un po’ bon-ton, per assecondare ogni stato d’animo. Clothes are light and dynamic, revisiting the seventies with a casual and contemporary style. Lightweight fabrics with vaguely folk patterns and precious golden glows. A little bit of gypsy, a little bon - ton, to match any mood. www.albertaferretti.com…

Creazioni uniche e atemporali, innovative e sperimentali, pensate per la quotidianità e dotate di un’eleganza contemporanea, che fa leva sulla trasformazione di capi classici e basici in qualcosa di inedito, tipica delle avanguardie nipponiche. I materiali a contrasto enfatizzano i volumi disinvolti e quell’appeal concettuale contaminato dallo street style più attuale. Chitose Abe gioca con le sovrapposizioni e le asimmetrie per realizzare una collezione perfetta nella sua articolata essenzialità. Unique timeless pieces, innovative and experimental, designed for everyday use and graced with contemporary elegance, which relies on the transformation of classic basic items into something new, as typical of Japanese avant-garde. Contrasting materials emphasise the casual volumes and the conceptual approach cross-pollinated with directional street style elements. Chitose Abe plays with layering and asymmetries to create a collection that is…

Secondo la nuova onda ecco un declinarsi dello stile no-gender, fatto di pezzi semplici, quasi rigorosi, come è rigorosa la scelta cromatica, bianco, nero e blu con un andare ritmico, che non lascia spazio ad altro. I volumi giocano con il micro e il macro, così le aderenze si alternano alle morbidezze. Uno stile minimalista dai dettagli impeccabilmente molto moda. According to the new trend, here comes an interpretation of no-gender, made of simple, almost rigorous pieces as rigorous as the choice of colours: white, black and blue with a rhythmic flow that leaves no room for other colours. Volumes play with micro and macro dimensions so that tight-fitting pieces alternate with fluid ones. A minimalist style withy very fashionable impeccable details. www.elizabethandjames.us…

La famosa stilista tedesca Susanne Wiebe definisce la sua nuova collezione, dal titolo Heartbeats, una “Art Collection”. è proprio l’arte infatti che scaturisce dagli abiti che, realizzati seguendo regole sartoriali di alto livello, mostrano le immagini dei dipinti di Thomas Niggl stampate su jersey e chiffon a testimonianza di una cooperazione artistica che ha coinvolto Susanne Wiebe e Hans M. Bachmayer. Ogni capo è unico e straordinario, come lo è un’opera d’arte. The famous German designer Susanne Wiebe defines her new collection, titled ‘Heartbeats’, as an “Art Collection”. As a matter of fact, art exudes from the clothes, made following sartorial rules of the highest level and images of Thomas Niggl paintings printed on jersey and chiffon, the results of the collaboration with Susanne Wiebe and Hans M. Bachmayer. Each…

Vestirsi con disinvoltura, senza costrizioni, ricondurre la moda ad un concetto di quotidianità senza eccessi o dimostrazioni forzate. La visione di Andrea Incontri è chiara e inequivocabile: l’urgenza di stupire diventa obsoleta e inutile, meglio privilegiare abiti dall’aspetto fresco e contemporaneo. Volumi fluidi e confortevoli, tagli moderni che adottano contorni sintetici, privilegiando silhouette senza fronzoli, tartan, micro pattern dal gusto vintage e dettagli sporty. Il presente ha inizio. Dress with nonchalance and with no coercions. Bring back fashion to an everyday life concept with no excess or forced ostentation. The Andrea Incontri vision is clearly unequivocal: the urgency to impress becomes obsolete and useless as it is better to prioritise clothes that look cool and contemporary. Fluid comfortable volumes, modern cuts that adopt synthetic contours, streamlined silhouettes, tartan, vintage-inspired micro…

Collezioni Trends Editor in Charge Brassaï, writer and filmmaker as well as photographer, discovered Paris at the age of four when his father first took him to the City of Lights. It was love at first sight: after studying art in Berlin, the irresistible charm of Paris forced him to return in 1924, when his adventure started by hanging out with artists and intellectuals of the period thanks to his friendship with the likes of Desnos and Prévert. The search of ordinary objects, whose meaning is transformed by distorting the sense of reality, is an evident proof of the influence of surrealism in his photographic work. These were crazy years lived in an unusual, unknown and despised by most Paris when his gaze fell on prostitutes of the red light…

TOMMY HILFIGER As we all know, at thirty years of age we are still kids and Tommy Hilfiger, or Tommy as it is universally known, is still a young brand, even more than some of its contemporaries. Tommy Hilfiger celebrates its thirty years by launching a celebratory capsule collection that wants to be an expression of the classic American style pioneered by the American designer since 1985. “Reflecting on my career at the turn of this 30th anniversary, I realise what extraordinary route I have taken during these three decades”, said Tommy Hilfiger. “I always dreamed big and I am proud to have remained true to myself and to my idea of reinventing East Coast iconic looks with a casual but high end touch”. Off we go with a collection…

BALENCIAGA Kering Group announced the appointment of Demna Gvasalia as new creative director of the French Maison Balenciaga. 34 years of age, German of Georgian descent, Gvasalia was chosen as the successor of Alexander Wang, who left the position last July. Balenciaga’s new creative mind will also keep leading the Vêtements art collective, the Parisian brand that reached the finals of the last edition of the LVMH Prize and is known all over the world for its floral dresses, unconventional proportions and deconstructed jeans. Gvasalia’s professional experience also includes 4 years as part of Belgian designer Martin Margiela’s team, where between 2009 ad 2013 he directed the creation of women’s collections, and also a short stint at Louis Vuitton. The first Balenciaga collection signed by the new creative director will…

Personally I am a great fan of Marcel Proust (maybe fan is not the right word to use with one of the greatest authors ever) and never have I thought to find a real version of one of his best carachters. La Mode Retrouvée tells the story of the Comtesse Greffulhe. She was the cousin of Robert de Montesquiou and was immortalized for posterity as the Duchese de Guermantes, one of the most incredible carachters in the history of literature thanks to the genius of Marcel Proust who depicts her charm in “À la recherche du temps perdu”. She was considered one of the most beautiful women in Paris, she owned a salon in her hotel particulier in which she received the Paris intelligentsia. She founded the Société des grandes…

After focusing on English eccentricity, Christopher Bailey takes Burberry Prorsum to a new direction by focusing on black and by injecting into the collection, aptly called ‘Functionregalia’, elements derived from ceremonial uniforms, like gold braiding, buttons, chains, and from streetwear, like biker jackets and rucksacks. Ruffles, lace and sorbet colours for the right dose of femininity. Una nuova direzione per Burberry Prorsum dopo l’eccentricità squisitamente inglese delle ultime collezioni. Il focus della collezione ‘Functionregalia’ è infatti il colore nero e i riferimenti alle uniformi da cerimonia, con ricami, bottoni e catene dorate, e allo streetwear, con chiodi e zainetti. Balze, pizzi e colori sorbetto per un tocco di femminilità accuratamente calibrato.…

A radical show examines the idea of the Queen from different angles with a controversial new direction: that classic is now avant-garde, and from fabric to construction represents the world’s most extreme handmade technology. The surreal model performances, set design by Paul Bradley, and 1970’s high-speed punk contrasts sharply with the entirely hand woven fabrics by the Colombo family in Badoere di Morgano and the provocative new collection-as 21st century queens walk their lands- an inheritance of destruction, waste, rubble and trash. Uno spettacolo radicale esamina l’idea della Regina da diverse angolazioni con una nuova e controversa direzione: che il classico è l’avanguardia di oggi, e dal tessuto alla costruzione rappresenta la tecnologia artigianale più estrema nel mondo. Le surreali prestazioni delle modelle, la scenografia di Paul Bradley, e il…

As per usual, the latest Gareth Pugh fashion show was a performance between art and theatre during which doll-like models paraded wearing bold, high impact outfits inspired to Soho, once the most creative hub in London, and its nightlife of yesteryear.

Come di norma, Gareth Pugh ha presentato una sfilata, tra performance d’arte e spettacolo teatrale, durante la quale le modelle hanno indossato look ad alto impatto visivo ispirati alla vita notturna di Soho, in passato l’hub creativo di Londra. Una tavolozza di colori concisa di nero, bianco, rosso e rame per capi importanti, perfettamente tagliati e confezionati.…

Alber Elbaz proceeds beautifully along his dearest codes made of tailoring, black and whites, almost haute couture sophisticated touches, embroidery and sequins, bows and drapery. By the way, his girl appears younger now - thanks to the masculine haircuts and the lower heeled shoes. Alber Elbaz continua egregiamente sui codici a lui più cari, fatti di lavorazioni sartoriali, di bianco e nero, di raffinatezza quasi da haute couture, di ricami e paillettes, di fiocchi e drappeggi. Piccolo particolare: sembra che la sua ragazza sia ringiovanita grazie alle pettinature alla maschietta e alle calzature più basse del solito.…

Alexander McQueen’s collection by Sarah Burton is probably her best collection since she took the reigns of the English brand. A collection that is clearly inspired by the Victorian age and that is made of some wearable pieces, flower printed dresses and a palette including pink.

In a sort of second youth, Yohji Yamamoto shows us such a perfect collection that we’re left speechless. It’s that unusual feeling that arises only from perfect work, when we uselessly seek mistakes or faults that aren’t there and that leads us to a sense of fulfillment otherwise hard to reach. His baseball maxi-cap is wonderful. The colours? Everlasting black and deep red. And, finally, let’s face it: nobody matches Monsieur Yamamoto’s red. In una sorta di seconda giovinezza, Yohji Yamamoto ci mostra una collezione così perfetta da lasciare senza parole. E’ quella sensazione strana che dà solo un lavoro fatto alla perfezione, quando si cerca l’errore senza trovarlo, la falla senza riconoscerla e che lascia un senso di appagamento difficile da eguagliare. Meraviglioso il maxi-cap da baseball. I colori?…
