Soft volumes and sensuality: everything is made in the most classic and traditional summertime tailoring TRADITION.
Light and Shadow
White and black suits with an “out-in-the-sun” effect: the colors of the fabric look like they faded away because of the long exposure in the sun.
The color of sand hints the beach, while beige recalls the tangle of peasants’ baskets.
Heat
The need and desire to slow down from the hectic rhythm of life thus taking back one’s own time.
The whole collection turns around the concept of a more relaxed and sensual kind of elegance.
This concept is also expressed through swimsuits made of knitwear and coordinated with the sweaters that recall the popular concept of the famous “Italian Vitelloni.”
