BOGLIOLI


 
FALL - WINTER 2016
 

 
The Boglioli Autumn/Winter 2015/16 Menswear Collection draws on its time honored traditions in tailoring, while further modernizing the silhouette and notable fit of its designs.
 
A new shape is introduced. Deeply tailored in its construction in a smart selection of materials, it achieves a dynamic aesthetic while preserving a completely relaxed feel. The jacket is shorter and the shoulders are precisely scaled, while the front design moves downward harmonically, smartly outlining the chest. A small marvel of construction and fabric, treated with the mindful and elegant craftsmanship of the Boglioli workshops. Trousers feature a higher waist, encompassing the leg just as gracefully as the jacket does the upper body.
 
Shades, colors and details of the collection bring back to light the understated and humbled elegance of the Milanese bourgeoisie of the 60’s and 70’s. A symphony of midtones and delicate pairings feature grays and camels as their mainstays while contrasting with shades of teal and coral. Every look and garment communicates a measured yet strong style; a confidence in men's dressing that needs no effort to express its beauty.
 
Checked fabrics feature new washes, enhancing the pattern, making matters softer and sophisticated. A maxi variation of houndstooth gives strength to the linear coat. Tweed and British traditional wools are taken beyond their traditional bounds with bombers and overalls cut with tailoring know-how.
 
The presentation of the collection is held at the Dimore Studio Gallery, of the famous Milanese design team that brought the modernist tradition of furnishing and architecture towards a new contemporary, ultra sophisticated and effortless goal. A testimony of an elective affinity and a marriage of style belonging to different fields but residing in the same philosophy.

Fendi



Fall Winter 2013-2014
 
Icons unchained
 
A modern translation and celebration of FENDI's DNA: a contemporary re-reading of fur and the new Selleria.
Fur is ubiquitous and is sublimated by innovative craftsmanship and technology.
Sport Couture: FENDIs new perceptions and hierarchy of materials. Double cashmere, silk, precious wools often doubled with neoprene. Many three-dimensional embroidery and trompe l’oeil: the craftsmanship on fabrics and leathers mimics fur and vice versa.
Form and functionality are in a constant dialogue: silhouettes and volumes are neat, anatomic, feminine, rounded, often geometrical, architectural, in one word modern.
Metamorphic minks and foxes play with the animalier FENDI codes, creating a magnified opulence of rare and precious manufacture.
Polychromic pastel tones, intarsia and stripes, versus withes and pure vivid colors.
Ongoing revisit of FENDI’s iconic handbags and the new Selleria that takes its name from the number of  hand-made stitches: Adele 1328, Anna 1322, Peekaboo 1584…
3D fur embroidery, glass tubes and micro-sequins, fringes, braiding.
Ultra-soft Cuoio Romano or sellier leather, mirrored plexiglass, printed pony, inlayed mink, weightless nappa.
Pointed pumps, boots and lace-ups have mirrored and multi-faceted heels.
