THE LATEST OFFERINGS RANGE FROM THE AVANT-GARDE AND ECO-FRIENDLY TO DESIGNS WITH THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF TAILORING ACCONCIATURE CARLA Carla is rethinking her stylistic point of view and bringing a stronger functional role to her creations. Perspectives are changing, and the accessory is no longer seen as a whim but as something indispensible that goes along with the dress, refining the neckline and enhancing the lines with fluidity via a reinterpretation that is current and modern. Precious materials are worked, transformed and layered with unique three-dimensional effects, and the precious jewellery elements are set discretely in impalpable fabrics. ANGELOTOMA Francesco Hayez s The Kiss and portraits by the great painter have had an influence on the new Angelotoma collection. Portraits in a setting where the decoration becomes the soul and the protagonist of the suit. An opening up to colour that is painterly, calibrated and combined with ton sur ton nuances, along with a decisive use of black and white. A new romanticism that is tied to art, to the most noble portraiture of the refined Milan of the nineteenth century with colours like wine red, powder blue, cream, black and slate grey in wool fabrics with small, opaque tapestry-like designs that come in viscose or mixed materials with shiny or jacquard effects and the use of lurex. ANNA CECERE The collection reinterprets the classic bag for day, which is roomy and contained, with a structure that is livened up via the use of ultra-modern materials and working methods. Large shopping bags are covered in neoprene and neo-realistic floral motifs or they take inspiration from street art, meant to hold things as well as protect, stand up to wear and tear and accompany us during our daily adventures. The leather, which represents Made in Italy in its truest and purest form, is engraved and pierced in order to be transformed into a very subtle decorative knit that brings to mind the light nature of lace. ANNA TUMAS ATELIER SPOSA The new collection offers wedding dresses in soft, flowing fabrics with lace sculpted into surprising floral motifs that frame the neckline and sensual transparencies. And there are also dresses in Mikado with romantic lines, richly embroidered bodices and generous skirts meant for princesses.
