Pitti Man S.S. 2015

Once again, creativity identifies with various expressions, giving confirmation of the special alchemy that always combines fashion and art. In the 86th edition of Pitti Uomo fashion shows chase and wonder.

Watching Etro’s collection, eyes start glowing. The fashion house combines its own elegance with a captivating irony, presenting outfits that remind Arcimboldo’s “culinary” works.

Etro fabrics are a triumph of shellfish pasta, embroidered tomato sauce and spaghetti with clams. Everything is a tribute to the Italian gastronomic tradition and certainly to the mark of Arcimboldo’s works.

From a wonderful fashion show to another!

The Made in Italy brand La Perla celebrates its 60th anniversary and for such an important anniversary, for the spring-summer man collection, it presents luxurious fabrics and chooses as a symbol a winged oyster and a pearl that becomes an eye. La Perla prints for longewear and beachwear, transport with a soft fantasy to an imaginary underwater world inspired by Piero Fornasetti’s art.

A lot of fashion shows, collections full of beautiful prints, classic or unusual colors, excellent tailoring, luxurious and gorgeous fabrics. Features of Dolce and Gabbana, in a world of “haughty” style, expressed in a collection inspired by proud and elegant bullfighters. Here again a connection with art, with Picasso’s bullfighters.

And for Artrust the step from bullfighters to tango is short, thinking about Comensoli’s tango dancers and our last exhibition. Once again, fashion is connected with art and together give eyes and heart emotions.
