The result? Brioni, Mackintosh, Eastpak, Dr. Martens, Lucchesse, Manolo Blahnik, Comme des Garçons Shirt, Levi’s,…

Giambattista Valli’s young line describes a modern girl, a citizen of the world. An incessant traveler, but a girl who still maintains that childlike air. A bit naïve, a bit of a dreamer. Her mischievous outfits exude a romantic allure in their transparencies and in their collars. Lace and chiffon play with lengths, mini or maxi. Prints of the Arizona desert remind us of a curious explorer, eager to learn, like the heroine from a modernday fairy tale. La linea giovane di Giambattista Valli delinea una ragazza moderna, cittadina del mondo, che viaggia senza sosta, pur mantenendo in sé quell’aria da bambina un po’ ingenua e un po’ sognatrice. Un’allure romantica negli abiti sbarazzini, nelle trasparenze e nei colletti, pizzi e chiffon giocano con le lunghezze, mini o maxi. Stampe…

A collection inspired by the cultivation of rice and its oriental influences. Volumes are abundant, ribbons borrowed by farmer garb, colors those of rice fields. All interpreted with extreme delicacy. Natural fabrics, such as the softness of linen and cotton, and then silk, with its slight sheen. An essential image is evoked with a strong personality. The same strong personality of its designer. L’ispirazione della collezione è tratta dalla coltivazione del riso e le sue suggestioni orientali. I volumi sono ampi, i nastri ispirati agli abiti dei coltivatori, i colori sono quelli delle risaie, tutto interpretato con estrema delicatezza. I tessuti naturali amano la morbidezza del lino e del cotone e poi la seta con i suoi aspetti leggermente lucidi, ne scaturisce un’immagine minimal dalla forte personalità come quella della…

Male and female, impeccably proportioned for a stern but casual image. A reflection of the times in which we live. Clothing that narrates a savoir-faire created through craftsmanship and an attention to detail, for a constant pursuit of excellence. The sartorial techniques used in designing the collection are dictated by a stylish sterility that rejects frivolities and imperfections, focusing on a linear and sophisticated style. From volumes to color selection, oriented towards a few defined shades of white, gray, orange, and blue. Maschile e femminile impeccabilmente dosati per ottenere un’immagine rigorosa ma disinvolta, specchio dei tempi che viviamo. Capi che raccontano un savoir-faire fatto di artigianalità e amore per i dettagli, nell’ottica della ricerca costante dell’eccellenza. Le tecniche sartoriali utilizzate per la realizzazione della collezione sono al servizio di una…

With his usual gentleness, Alessandro Dell’Acqua imagines a female figure who loves dressing fashionably, but with that certain unprecedented je ne sais quoi that makes her special. In keeping with the summer season, different variations of white are accompanied by a touch of silver, but just a slight hint. Large trapeze shirts are worn over skirts, better if ample, since skirts are the real must of the season - even if pencil - along with dresses. Not one pair of pants on the catwalk. Micro fantasies. Art Nouveau. Overlapping. Pompons are a decorative motif, with the merest ethnic allusion. Con la consueta dolcezza Alessandro Dell’Acqua immagina una figura femminile che ama vestirsi alla moda, ma con quel certo non so che di inedito che la rende particolare. Come vuole la…

A turning point for the eclectic Thom Browne who, abandoning the evocative gothic mood of winter, launches into a colorful vibrant summer, expressed in an effervescent sunny color palette. A profusion of patterns, geometric or floral, invade composed printed suits with a bon-ton cut, flirting with fabrics in contrast and optical deceptions. The stern demeanour of urban silhouettes couple with tropically fresh, flashy colors. Fun and confounding, as expected. Giro di boa per l’eclettico Thom Browne che, abbandonate le suggestive atmosfere gotiche dell’inverno, si lancia in un’estate colorata e vibrante, espressa da una cartella cromatica frizzante e solare. Stampe a profusione, geometriche o floreali, invadono composti abiti stampati a tailleur dal taglio bon-ton, che flirtano con materiali a contrasto e inganni ottici. L’impostazione severa delle silhouette urbane si coniuga con…

Designed by Thiago Marcon. Batman and Robin. Comic book icons from the 60s. The starting point for a super fun collection that is very attentive to trends loved by the younger generation. Short shorts, but with a tailored look. Super cropped tops, in contrast with especially long vests in sweatshirt material or technical fabrics. Graffiti as prints. Graphic “A” line dresses, and chains as a decorative motif. A must. Disegnata da Thiago Marcon, Batman e Robin, icone dei fumetti anni Sessanta, sono il punto di partenza per allestire una collezione superdivertente e molto attenta ai trend che piacciono ai giovanissimi. Short corti, ma dall’aspetto sartoriale, top che arrivano solo sotto al seno, in contrasto ai lunghi gilet in felpa o materiali tecnici. Graffiti come stampe. Abiti grafici dalla linea ad…

The young Alexander Wang, who has always shown a preference for a mood that’s sporty, surprised his audience with a capsule collection created in collaboration with the German brand, Adidas, presented during the closing of his show. On the catwalk, a thousand variations of the male shirt, along with his traditional fabrics. Revisited and corrected, they become super feminine tops or killer short miniskirts. Black and white reigns supreme in a look where bras become the undisputed stars, also over long skirts embellished with sequins. Il giovane Alexander Wang, che ha sempre dimostrato una predilezione per uno mood sportivo, ha stupito il pubblico con una capsule collection realizzata in collaborazione con il brand tedesco Adidas che ha presentato in chiusura della sfilata. In passerella mille declinazioni della camicia maschile e…

Expectations are great for the new collection designed by Alessandro Michele. A revolutionary within, he couldn’t but help to impress his guests and the entire fashion system, while they waited to experience strong emotions because if they’re not strong, they’re not emotions. Alessandro dips into his knowledge for fashion - important and attentive - and pulls out a few archetypes. The result is a homage to the greats: Coco Chanel, Schiaparelli, and Moschino. Yet, there’s more. The imaginary tends towards an explicit declaration of chaos. The true trend of the moment launched by Alessandro himself, but only on the catwalk. The proposals, in themselves, besides their styling, are very elaborate, baroque, and extreme, yet, still harmonic. Le aspettative per la nuova collezione firmata da Alessandro Michele sono tante. Rivoluzionario dentro,…

GET A LIFE: THE DIARIES OF VIVIENNE WESTWOOD The fashion designer and political activist, Vivienne Westwood, is the author of the book, “Get a Life”, published by Serpent’s Tail. A collection of the most significant diary entries written by the Godmother of Punk. “My diaries are about the things I care about. Not just fashion but art and writing, human rights, climate change, freedom. I’ll call the diaries Get a Life as that’s how I feel: you’ve got to get involved, speak out and take action.” Vivienne Westwood’s words and the title of her book - in itself explanatory - are, indeed, an invitation to become actively involved in what happens in the world and act on it. The provocative and unpredictable charm of the designer makes the book unquestionably…

A romantic streak runs throughout the collection. Full long skirts, details that recall the Victorian period in collars and sleeves. Impalpable laces and fabrics play a leading role. An ode to a femininity that is pure and dreamy. A trip to Japan. In the prints, koi fish and delicate buds beautified by embroidery with golden reflections. A fairytale that looks towards modernity. Among the fabrics appear those typical ones taken from the wardrobe of a man, such as poplin for shirts. www.erdem.com Una vena romantica scorre in tutta la collezione, gonne ampie e lunghe, dettagli che richiamano il periodo vittoriano nei colletti e nelle maniche, pizzi e tessuti impalpabili giocano un ruolo da protagonisti, un’ode alla femminilità più pura e sognante. Un viaggio in Giappone, nelle stampe carpe koi e…

Logically aggressive. From the Versace Collection, a female figure that moves with agility and self-confidence in a bustling and frenetic urban context. Lengths are shortened and remain at the knee or up to mid-thigh. Outerwear becomes efficient, combining leather with technical fabrics, without affecting the femininity of the silhouette. Stripes, geometric prints reminiscent of paintings by Mondrian, and bright colors combined with black. Just what Donatella likes. it.versace.com Aggressiva ma con logica. Dalla collezione Versace nasce una figura femminile che si muove con agilità e sicurezza in un contesto urbano movimentato e frenetico. Le lunghezze si accorciano e restano al ginocchio o si alzano a metà coscia, i capispalla diventano performanti e abbinano la pelle ai tessuti tecnici, senza che la silhouette ne risenta in termini di femminilità. Righe, stampe…

Eccentric, amused, and amusing. The Red Valentino girl loves to mix the elements of her wardrobe for surprising results that reflect her vision of the world. A bit anarchist, certainly individualistic. Outerwear with rounded volumes contrasts with light dresses, gold juxtaposes the transparency of lace, a hint of animal prints in a contemporary version, and lengths that rise and fall with irreverence. A color? Pale pink. www.redvalentino.com Eccentrica, divertita e divertente la ragazza Red Valentino ama mixare gli elementi del suo guardaroba e ottiene risultati sorprendenti, che rispecchiano la sua visione del mondo, un po’ anarchica, di certo individualista. Ai capispalla, dai volumi arrotondati, si oppongono abiti leggeri, all’oro si accosta la trasparenza del pizzo, un pizzico di animalier in versione contemporanea, e lunghezze che salgono scendono con irriverenza. Un…

All the charm and colors of wild flowers, peonies, tulips, and tea roses, are impressed on garments designed by Sarah Burton. At a first glance, they resemble prints but, instead, they’re hand-painted, as if the brush of an artist used the dresses as canvases. Careful attention to detail and the finest fabrics, made in Italy with machines that use advanced technology, distinguish the entire collection. The leather is so fine and delicate, it does not resemble leather, nor does the knitwear. A resort collection that really comes close to Haute Couture. www.alexandermcqueen.com Tutto il fascino e i colori dei fiori di campo, peonie, tulipani, roselline, sono impressi sugli abiti disegnati da Sarah Burton. A prima vista sembrerebbero stampati, ma in realtà sono dipinti a mano, come se il pennello di…

The assertive tones of black and white define a collection that leaves no room for frivolities. The silhouettes, contemporary in their volumes and decisive in their cuts, flirt with polka dot patterns mixed in patchwork structures, for asymmetries with a 90s taste. Waistlines are cinched by fabric belts, where only the buckle shows, designing an image that has a strong urban attitude. it.calvinklein.com I toni assertivi del bianco e nero definiscono una collezione che non lascia spazio a frivolezze.

A style of life. Not just resort wear or attire designed for pristine beaches. Everything is extremely refined, both in the fabrics - where specific demands must be met - and also in the creative process, reaching beyond the most conventional of proposals. Un-dressing becomes pret-àporter. Inspirations range from the fantastic world of surfing - with all it tends to offer - to the 60s and 80s, and one-pieces boast cutout holes with peeping bellybuttons. Uno stile di vita, non solo abbigliamento da resort o pensato per spiagge incontaminate. Tutto è estremamente ricercato sia nei materiali, che devono rispondere ad esigenze specifiche, sia nel processo creativo, che vuole andare oltre alle proposte più canoniche. Quindi lo s-vestire si fa alto prêt-à-porter e le ispirazioni vanno dal fantastico mondo del surf…

Alberto Zambelli’s creative journey traverses dreams and history, before reaching reality. Fluid jacquards recall the world of botany. Bibs embellished with pearls and crystals become unusual macro puzzles that enrich the cleavage. Ethereal fil coupé resembles the movement of leaves and nature, juxtaposed with ribbons and techno chiffon, while they come together with crisp poplin and origami aprons. The season’s must: decor stripes and oversized shirts complete the collection with a touch of sophisticated modernity.

An authentic luxury. Contemporary, impeccable, told through precious materials and precise workmanship. A sense of modernity that rhymes with the tendency to prefer dynamic, contemporary silhouettes. Ensembles with a masculine look evolve into folk-inspired outfits. Fringes and Aztec motifs, biker jackets with a strong personality, and sensual evening gowns with details that are reminiscent of the Mexican expanses of aloe vera plantations. All calibrated and casual, just what Ralph fancies.

Perfectly coherent with her style, Gloria continues on her journey through the macro minimalist theme that, despite being made up of rigorous, always geometric cuts, has that something extra that makes it very feminine. Contemplated for an artistic and cultured international elite, this brand is impressive for the extraordinary nature of its interpretations. Asymmetries. Jackets that buckle on the back feigning good form. Impeccable accessories. A range of balanced colors. Reassuring.

Consuelo Castiglioni rides the wave of the moment and presents a conceptual collection that impresses for its simplicity and demonstrates a stylistic research that is profound and elaborate. Architectural structures, experimented shapes, drawstrings that magically give form to a dress. The designer mutates feminine curves, exaggerates volumes in sleeves and shoulders. Waists are cinched by belts, prints are graphic, but single colors prevail. Pleated fabrics appear, imparting a touch of romance. Consuelo Castiglioni cavalca l’onda del momento e propone una collezione concettuale che stupisce per la semplicità e dimostra una profonda ed elaborata ricerca stilistica. Strutture architettoniche, forme studiate, coulisse che magicamente regalano la forma a un abito. La stilista deforma le curve femminili, esagera nei volumi, nelle maniche, nelle spalle.

Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne, who have been creative directors at DKNY for the past couple of seasons, are leading the brand into the near future. A reinterpretation of its codes in a vision that is even more contemporary. A focus on looks with an urban, underground flair. Details stolen from sportswear and streetwear. Poplin, nylon, satin, along with efficient technical fabrics, for silhouettes dedicated to metropolitan tribes, created with overlays, transparencies in a techno version, and oversized volumes that transform dresses into protective armor.

Subtract instead of add. Simplify, polish up, refresh. Untitled n.1 defines a linear contemporary image that rejects the rampant tendency of superabundance and focuses on more refined concepts, geared towards essentiality. The creative journey starts in Japan, in an imaginary Ryokan that baptizes sophisticated garments for a wardrobe designed to cover rather than reveal. Coats flirt with silhouettes borrowed from male kimonos. Dresses are dissected and interspersed by fabric inserts and panels, straps and aprons. The definition of a casual, modern mood. Sottrarre anziché aggiungere, alleggerire, ripulire, rinfrescare: “Untitled n.1” definisce un’immagine lineare e contemporanea, che rifiuta la dilagante tendenza alla sovrabbondanza per concentrarsi su concetti più sofisticati, orientati all’essenzialità. Il percorso creativo parte dal Giappone, in un ryokan immaginario che battezza capi raffinati, per un guardaroba ideato per proteggere…

On the runway the watchword is: shimmer! Jeans are covered with sequins and animal prints also love to sparkle with a dazzling brilliance. Shoulders become prominent, puffed. Skirts are short-short. The mood is sexy and provocative, just like the brand! Military references are multifarious. Frock jackets with gold buttons persistently appear for a runway show that is an 80s revival with a modern twist, while Dean and Dan’s embroidered coat of arms is flaunted on tops and dresses. Their motto: “Born in Canada, living in London, made in Italy”, is an emphasis on the Italian make of each one of their creations. Sulla passerella la parola d’ordine è brillare: i jeans si ricoprono di paillette e anche l’animalier ama luccicare di uno splendore abbagliante. Le spalle si fanno importanti, a…

For Spring/Summer 2017, Julianna Bass designed the perfect dreamscape of honeyed calamity, oblivious opulence and drunk femininity. Incorporating photographer Blaž Kutin’s hyper-close, post-digital patterns of industrial Berlin, Bass orchestrates illusionary flaunts of skin and kaleidoscopic prints, dampened gowns draped in crepe and silk, and carefree swathes of distressed sateen. Froths of chiffon and lace luxuriate in shades of mint, blush and bone. Spun-sugar dresses clamor against structured windowpane organza, and neither is worse for wear. www.juliannabass.com Per la primavera estate 2017 Julianna Bass si immerge in una realtà onirica, surreale, che segue una calamità, un’opulenza intrisa di femminilità. Compaiono immagini fotografiche astratte di Blaž Kutin e motivi digitali della Berlino industriale.

Elie Saab presents “Parenthesis”, the Resort Collection, which is a contrast between tradition and modernity. Japanese aesthetic influences are evident in its prints, its wide belts, and in the generous volumes that resemble those of kimonos. His couturier soul becomes evident in the sophisticated embroidery and in the cuts, recalling high-end tailoring. The pastel colors are reminiscent of flower buds in a garden.

Dalle righe, leitmotiv della stagione, alle calzature sportive in maglia, ai broccati…

Relaxed is the watchword, and Victoria Beckham once more confirms her inclination for casual clothes. Clothes that naturally flow over the body and are just a tad snobbish. Modern, wearable pieces that unpretentiously and flawlessly embody the spirit of our times. Sensual silhouettes are defined through the movement of silk and velvet ruffles that rhyme with the deconstruction of knit dresses as they reveal provocative lingerie. Colors are warm and comfortable, while they resound with the vivid tones of orange and caramel. Floral prints are romantic -like a bouquet - and precision is defined by macro and micro stripes. Parola d’ordine: relax. Victoria Beckham conferma nuovamente la sua predisposizione per capi disinvolti e un po’ snob, che si appoggiano al corpo con naturalezza. Abiti moderni e portabili, che incarnano lo…

A Navy officer. A love letter dedicated to his wife and son. “What will become of you my beloved wife? You, who has accompanied me through the journey of life with pride. What will become of our son, whose illusions I will not be able to know nor share...” An immense love. Compelling graphics. Expeditious. È una lettera d’amore che un militare della Marina dedica a sua moglie e a suo figlio. “…Cosa sarà di te mia amata sposa? Tu che mi hai accompagnato nel cammino della vita con orgoglio. Cosa sarà di nostro figlio, con il quale non potrò condividere, né conoscere le sue illusioni…” L’amo da morire. Interessante la grafica. Immediata.…

Silhouettes that are based on a precise and sophisticated architecture -reminiscent of the noble art of origami and of an affinity with the Japanese approach towards perfect tailoring - tell the story of an airiness and a passion for ample, structured volumes, with rounded shoulders and kimono sleeves, for an elegant cocoon effect. Clothes that float on the body with sweeping movements, tending towards oversized shapes, defying gravity, and sinuously revealing shoulders. Contemporary geometries that define an exquisite, suggestive collection.

Abiti che galleggiano…

Great visual impact for the grand finale. A runway show that wraps up the rather frenzy scenario of New York Fashion Week. A perfect response to the demands of fashion that are ever more thrill-seeking. The mood was marked by independence, so to speak. Mixing and matching. The new edict imposed by Gucci. The true trend of the moment. Nonetheless, Marc’s collection revisits the concept through a glamorous perspective, redesigning the female figure into a sexy, diverting beauty. Nello scenario un po’ confuso della New York Fashion Week ecco come finale una sfilata di grande impatto scenografico, che risponde perfettamente alle esigenze della moda assetata di emozioni sempre più forti. Il mood è all’insegna della libertà, si fa per dire, il mixare è la nuova legge imposta da Gucci, vero…

Darkness as a new beginning. This is the inspiration behind the new Barbara I Gongini collection. The designer continues on her stylistic search, on that avant-garde approach that distinguishes her. Capable of combining haute couture with streetwear for a totally versatile look. Asymmetric cuts, outside stitching, and unexpected slits constitute the DNA of the brand, making each piece extremely versatile. Black dominates in all its expressions for a combination of textures and materials that sinuously envelope the silhouette. L’oscurità come nuovo inizio: questa l’ispirazione alla base della nuova collezione di Barbara I Gongini. La stilista prosegue nella sua ricerca stilistica, in quell’approccio avanguardista che la contraddistingue, capace di unire l’alta sartorialità allo streetwear, per un look assolutamente poliedrico. Tagli asimmetrici, cuciture a vista e aperture inattese costituiscono il dna del…

When others shout, Miuccia whispers. Here is a collection that wants to be simple, but it’s not. Instead, it is particularly interesting precisely because of its apparent simplicity. Skirts are lovely. Raincoats tie asymmetrically. Beautiful. Crisscross sweaters are desirable. Bomber jackets are revisited and corrected. Patterns and squares are vintage. Jackets are made to tighten across the chest with small print belts. Chic. Chinese collars are always adored. A few decorations with feathers, just for fun. A splendid exercise in style. Quando gli altri urlano, Miuccia sussurra. Ecco una collezione che si vuole semplice e non lo è, nel senso, che è particolarmente interessante proprio per la sua apparente semplicità. Sono gonne, belle. Sono impermeabili dall’allacciatura asimmetrica e sono belli. Golfini da incrociare e sono desiderabili. Bomberini riveduti e corretti.…

Domenico and Stefano’s new collection is a veritable ode to the joy of living that captures and enhances the essence of Italian nature. Color, irony, excess, and rigor in an extraordinary mix, just like our country. Extraordinary. Alongside the Maison’s great classics - pertaining to its DNA - this collection, entitled Tropico Italiano - Italian Tropic - is fraught with lace tube and also corset dresses. T-shirts with fun satirical ads - a whole series of them - ripped jeans, and even T-shirts with sacred images accompany uniform-like Jackets and, above all, dresses that make a woman feel like a woman. Beautiful. La nuova collezione di Domenico e Stefano è un vero e proprio inno alla gioia di vivere, che va a cogliere ed esaltare l’essenza della nostra italianità. Colore,…

Calling to mind the connective power of masculine and feminine wardrobe, Yiorgos Eleftheriades SS17 collection creates and explores the rules of a game which invites the sharp visualizer-wearer play with fluent strictness and the suggestiveness of Neo-romanticism. The equilibrium of the sartorial plot is defined through signature Eleftheriades geometrical shapes outlined by soft volumes and cinched waistlines. The colour assemblage is a further powerful element of the SS17 embodying both style and intellect.

The minimalism embedded in the DNA of the brand dictates the rules of a collection that finds its strong-point in studying shapes and volumes. Pants are floor-length, without constraints, defining proportions with an oversized flair. A casual urban mood, which combines fluid, comfortable skirts and dresses with soft tunics cinched at the waist, accentuating the silhouette. Rigor and comfort, as desired by the times in which we live. www.jilsander.com Il minimalismo intrinseco nel dna del marchio detta le regole di una collezione che trova nello studio di forme e volumi il punto di forza. I pantaloni, dal gusto over, cadono senza costrizioni a terra, un mood disinvolto e urbano, che abbina gonne e abiti fluidi e confortevoli a casacche morbide, strette in vita a sottolineare la silhouette. Rigore e comfort,…

Riccardo Tisci has his mind set, and perpetuates the image of a strong and independent woman who alternates sportswear-derived clothing with precious evening dresses made of petals and ruffles. Ambivalent figures who will not settle for a single image, but prefer change. From femme fatale to urban heroine in a tank girl style, combining stripes with multicolor geometries and boots with contrasting laces. Two sides of the same coin. www.givenchy.com Riccardo Tisci non cambia idea e perpetua l’immagine di una donna forte e indipendente, che alterna capi di derivazione sportswear a preziosissimi abiti da sera fatti di petali e ruches.

The new resort collection takes substantiality and accessibility as its starting point combined with the trademark style features of the brand. Simple shapes combined with patterns inspired by the elements and geometry of Art Deco wallpaper stand out, as they always do in the designer’s style features. The silhouette is slim and layered. Volume is built up in a game of layers from body-hugging micros to oversize macro pieces. www.maisonalbino.com Concretezza e fruibilità sono i punti di partenza nello studio della collezione uniti ai riconoscibili contenuti stilistici del marchio. Spiccano, come di consueto nella ricerca del designer, l’essenzialità delle forme unita alla ricerca di motivi decorativi ispirati agli elementi e alle geometrie dei wall papers Art Déco. La silouhette è sottile e stratificata, i volumi si sovrappongono come in un…

The secret to the success of Talbot Runhof lies in the careful selection of fabrics that represents its true source of inspiration. A use of innovative materials is joined by an everlasting love for sartorial traditions. The outcome is an extraordinary mix of Made in Italy jacquard and delicate French lace, inspired by the elegance of haute couture. Skirts are bell-shaped, midi or long enough to brush the floor. Abstract shapes are reminiscent of Kandinsky. Floral or geometric patterns alternate with inserts and embroideries. Embellishments for an ironic and polyhedral approach where black, white, and pastel colors are the leitmotif. Il segreto del successo del marchio Talbot Runhofsta nell�accurata selezione dei tessuti che rappresentanola vera fonte di ispirazione. All�utilizzo dimateriali all�avanguardia si unisce infatti l�amoreintramontabile per la tradizione sartoriale. Edecco…

The art of mixing ideas, memories, dreams, and fantasies is the magic created by Antonio Marras, who made of this a tried and true style. He sees the woman as a diamond with a thousand and one facets. For her, he creates floral-patterned clothes, with Chinese collars, continuously influenced by notions and, just for the pleasure of contrasts, his opposing classic stripes. www.antoniomarras.it L�arte del mixare suggestioni, ricordi, sogni e fantasie � la magia di Marras, che ne ha fatto un vero e proprio stile. Vede la donna come undiamante dalle mille e una sfaccettature e perlei crea abiti dalle fantasie floreali, con il collettoalla cinese in una contaminazione continua diintuizioni. Sempre per il piacere del contrasto:le sue classiche rigature che si oppongono.…
