COLLECTION: “BLACK POWER”
AUTUMN-WINTER 08-09
This collection was born from the cultural movement “Black Power” that arose in the USA in the 60s last century to claim for the right of African Americans to be represented in every field of American social, political and cultural life, and this meant a complete revolution.
Malcom X, Mohamed Ali, The Black Panthers…Black and funky music flooded the cinema, the radio and the television.
Inspired by this great trend, the silhouette of this collection comes from the sixties and seventies with simple and romantic forms of marked taste for innovation and risk.
From natural textures such as cotton to other more technological ones with Lurex and highlights, the tissue shows itself to be basic and vital in a monochromatic collection.
It is essentially a monochromatic collection, where the pure black colour invades everything, although we never relinquish small brushstrokes and nuances with saturated colours such as red and mint. |
