“A new proposal of the concept of morphing. The juxtaposition of the man-made and the organic, fusing the most modern techniques of fabrication available with the most classic tailoring traditions. I extended this concept into the very fibres of the collection, incorporating a nanotechnology process that merges the matter. Each garment comes to life becoming an ever changing organism. Nature/future, Thoureau’s Walden/Asimov’s Android”

MORPHING
Costume National FW 10-11: a rock’n’roll mood, couture yet essential: refined, comfortable, protective.
Everything is deconstructed.
Fabric, leather and fur merge with knits of all kind, from cloth to mohair, from dry to damp.
Dresses are created by matching materials of different weights, from washed cashmere cloth and felted wool gauze, to organza resembling nylon. The outwear is warm but very light.
The colours palette is natural and urban: ivory, almond, dark brown, black, silver, charcoal and concrete.
 

A unique “bark” embroidery: an organic and iridescent surface of hand-folded gold sequins covered one by one with black voile.
Dresses are short with deep V neck and pants – in leather or in lamé fabric – are slim and slightly flared.
The silhouette is clean, defined and wraps the body. A deconstructed couture where everything is laser cut.
Complete the look shoes with new squared high platforms and oversized, urban bags.
