HEAD TO TOE

FENDI

Sandali e fascia, Fendi, f/w 2017.

Silvia Venturini Fendi ha preso ispirazione, per il suo uomo autunnale, dallo sportswear degli anni ’80 e ’90, ravvivato da tocchi stilistici presi dal peculiare stile Buffalo, di cui Ray Petri era maestro. Tra felpe a blocchi di colore, sandali flat in pelle e montone, immancabili inserti di pelliccia, fasce in lana, spiccano degli inni alla positività, i cosiddetti “Fendi Vocabulary”: messaggi semplici, diretti, fatti di singole parole, come “Love”, “Listen”, “Try”, sorta di regole universali da seguire fiduciosamente. E in quest’ottica, la stessa parola “Fendi”, riprodotta in caratteri bold, diventa essa stessa un’immagine positiva, da indossare da capo a piedi. A cura di Angelica Pianarosa, Foto Michele Gastl.

IO DONNA SCHEMA LIBERO ROMA, IL SET ETERNO

10-MODA-R-schema-libero_Storia8

The eternal set. It’s one of the iconic architectures of the capital. The Palace of Italian Civilization, in the Eur, restored by Fendi and headquarter of the maison from October 2015, includes also a space for exhibitions and public events. This is one of the many international sociocultural procedures about communication between fashion, architecture, art. The building was designed between 1936 and 1937, and finished in 1940, for the Universal Exposition that never took place. From the “peplum” to The Last Kiss by Muccino, the building and its surroundings have been the set for hundreds of movies. About the picture I chose, the great book Eur, si gira, by Laura Delli Colli, says: “For the fellinian episode “The temptation of Dr Antonio” in Boccaccio ’70, the filmmaker imagined a busty Ekberg on the advertising billboard “Drink more milk”. It had to be only a picture, but during the making of the movie, Fellini changed his mind and wanted Anita in the flesh”.

IO DONNA SCHEMA LIBERO VINTAGE GENERATION

cohenVintage Generation. Some people call it “Vintage Generation”, others brush off the most fashionable style at the moment defining it “gender”, ignoring the meaning of this word. In the second case, this is a label given with negative meaning: ignorance produces confusion. For the may issue of Style Magazine we met and photographed Thomas Cohen, “songwriter, dandy, bohemian from London”; a rising talent that look like he’s just left a cover of a Bowie’s or Jagger’s disc. But let’s talk about this trend that, instead of emphasizing muscles and wide shoulders, focus the feminine side of men (in both men and women, hetero or homosexual, coexist a feminine and a masculine parts). Michele (Gucci), Maier (Bottega Veneta), Venturini Fendi and Prada (Miuccia has been a forerunner), has created collections inspired by the 70s, bringing back to fashion a combinable/decomposable styling. A mosaic that reminds us the most refined looks of the stars of the day. Avoiding denim. Thomas Cohen, in a picture by Simon for Style Magazine Italia, wears Bottega Veneta.
