TRANSIT COLLECTION
SPRING-SUMMER 08

Transit is a state of mind, it is a moment in one’s life, in existence, a place in which changes and transformations take you from one place to another, it is a time of changes, of evolution, of growth, of discoveries.

The collection marks an intermediate step between the decades of the fifties and the sixties with a genuinely American and cosmopolitan touch with its cities of New York, San Francisco, its Cinema industry and its Star System with figures such as Rita Hayworth, Ava Gardner, Marilyn Monroe.

The silhouette covers a great deal, full of suggestions that define a woman who is very proud of her femininity.
Natural tissues of cotton and silk, mixed in the same tissue and joined to new concepts of the technique as regards way of dressing, metal threads are re-interpreted to solve the problem that this type of cloth had some years ago, and now these difficulties have been overcome.

The colours evoke a city sky of a Beverly Hills sunset, full of mist, of lead-like Greys, of greyish mauve, Raw dusty effects, touches of dimmed Greens and Yellows, the colours of a stormy summer afternoon.
