MARNI BOUTIQUE IN SAN FRANCISCO

Marni is pleased to announce the opening of its new flagship boutique at 77 Maiden Lane, in San Francisco’s Union Square district.





The new store design concept was initially launched with the Madrid and Milan boutiques and is the result of the collaboration between Consuelo Castiglioni, Marni's creative director, and Luz Maria Jaramillo, the brand's interior designer. The new Marni retail experience in this northern Californian city spans 3500 square feet across two levels, bringing together diverse geometries in a harmonious mix of forms, materials and moods that embody the brand’s aesthetic language. The boutique retains the building’s original architectural features, such as the high ceilings, illuminated by multiform Barrisol light sources, to give it a spacious feel.








The women’s collections are displayed on the ground floor, where the variegated hues of the asymmetrical marble floor tiles complement the chromatic spectrum of white, green and grey used to delineate the clothing and accessory collections. Geometric carpets and plush ottomans in sage-green velvet create the backdrop for displays where handbags and totes stand on canvas-wrapped shelving, eyewear and bijoux find their niche in crystal and steel boxes that punctuate the walls, and shoes pair up in leather-lined alcoves.





A granite and glass staircase leads to the basement, home exclusively to  the men’s collections, where the theme of marble accents and bold chromatic elements continues, with display and counter surfaces depicted in yellow, octane, magenta and optical white, a striking contrast to the pale smoothness of the concrete floor.



 The opening of this new boutique in the United States further strengthens Marni’s presence in this strategically important market.

Prada in Macau

PRADA OPENS A NEW STORE COMPLETELY DEDICATED TO THE MEN’S COLLECTIONS IN MACAU 





Prada opens its fourth store in Macau, inside the prestigious ‘Studio City’ Mall. The space, designed by architect Roberto Baciocchi, covers a total area of approximately 500 square metres on a single level and houses the men’s ready-to-wear, leather goods, accessories and footwear collections. A succession of light-coloured stone pillars and light boxes inserted into black granite volumes sets the rhythm of the external façade. The internal façade is clad in black granite, while slim burnished steel profiles frame the entrances, windows and light boxes. The two entrances open on an area defined by a succession of spaces, each featuring a different atmosphere. The area dedicated to the leather goods and accessories collections is characterised by Saint Laurent marble floorboards, ebony-clad walls and polished steel display cases and counters. An elegant sitting area, defined by cotto-coloured leather sofas, leads to the space where the men’s footwear and ready-to-wear collections are showcased. The space housing the footwear collections is defined by ebony floorboards and polished steel and crystal cases and counters with drawers covered in coloured saffiano leather exalting the product display. Cotto-coloured leather sofas complete the furnishing. The last room, dedicated to the ready-to-wear collections, is characterised by walls featuring orange encaustic painting, creating an elegant atmosphere.

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.

Marni

MEN’S F/W 2015-2016
 
 
Regeneration. The new Marni collection lands a ponderous gaze on the past, whilst bringing it firmly to the present. The Museo Marino Marini, where the show takes place, is a seamless juxtaposition of existing elements and new architectural interventions, so is the collection. Neat shapes charge up in the choice of tactile materials, in the bold play of colors and textures, suggesting an idea of easy elegance.
 
Fur, knit and sturdy tailoring toy with sophisticated quirks of personality. Zip-up tunic tops layered on printed shirts and skinny sky trousers suggest dynamism. Collarless coats have the ease of a cardigan and the intimacy of a robe, while double-breasted styles have a welcoming roominess.
 
Formality is approached from a slightly off-kilter angle: mismatched checks, broken suits, plain dress shirts paired with knitted ties. Jackets are compact, with a high buttoning, while trousers flare at the hem, or fall straight. The inside of the garments and their details are as studied and surprising as the outside: colorful pocket linings, contrast taping, hidden buttoning.
 
Fur is a strong feature in many ways throughout the collection. Alpaca on outerwear, long sheepskin gilets closed by snaps worn on top of suits, bonded goat cardigan coats, astrakhan and bleached alpaca scarves.
 
Knits are boxy and tactile, with a home-spun quality.
 
The color palette is earthy and deep: tones of brown, blue, grey, black are accented with flashes of red, yellow, flesh. Prints are painterly blossoms. Fabrics are precious and firm, with a stress on textures: twisted flannel, herringbone tweed, linen-wool, double faced angora cashmere, wool gabardine, bonded suede.
 
The progressive tone of the collection carries on in the accessories. Sturdy zip-up boots and derbies have contrast "mended" heels, sliced rubber toe caps give sneakers an old-school feel. Goat fur backpacks and wool apron bags match the looks.

Prada

Prada Menswear Spring/Summer 2015 Campaign

There are forces in feelings, and feelings in things. Attesting to this tangible truth are a series of graphic action portraits for Prada’s Spring/Summer 2015 Menswear campaign.
Four of today’s leading men lend their screen presence to an act of photographic forensics: Ansel Elgort (The Fault in Our Stars; Men, Women and Children; Divergent; and the upcoming Insurgent), Ethan Hawke (The ‘Before’ Trilogy; Boyhood; Predestination; Regression), Jack O’Connell (Unbroken; Starred Up; ‘71) and Miles Teller (The Spectacular Now; Whiplash; The Fantastic Four).
Photographer Craig McDean shoots the cinematic cast between London and New York. But the sense of place in is more psychological than geographical. Close-ups of hands, faces and agitated outlines conjure a sense of the unknown.
Objectsknife, orange, dice, prism, compass, pen, lens, pendulumare picked up, moved, balanced. Pensively scrutinized. Familiar things become less than familiar the more they’re looked at. As if the magical forces that make the world seem so normal have, for an indeterminately short time, revealed their strangeness.
Stitching is the leitmotiv of the collection. A graphic effect — large, small, in contrasting colours — revolutionizing and mixing classic codes while creating new ones. Modern proportions and silhouettes invoke the 1970s. Not as pastiche but pure peculiarity.
The images’ muted colour switches to bold black and white, then back again, mirroring the four actors’ fragmented mental focus. Silence, a space for secrets. In these photographs each of their personalities effortlessly perform new secrets.

Campagna pubblicitaria Prada Uomo Primavera/Estate 2015

Ci sono forze nei sentimenti, e sentimenti nelle cose: una evidente verità attestata da una serie di ritratti grafici eseguiti per la campagna pubblicitaria Prada Uomo Primavera/Estate 2015.
Quattro personaggi di spicco nel panorama cinematografico attuale inscenano una sorta di dibattito fotografico: Ansel Elgort (Colpa delle stelle; Men, Women & Children; Divergent e l’imminente Insurgent); Ethan Hawke (la trilogia Before; Boyhood; Predestination; Regression); Jack O’Connell (Unbroken; Starred Up; ‘71) e Miles Teller (The Spectacular Now; Whiplash; I Fantastici Quattro).
Il fotografo Craig McDean ritrae gli attori tra Londra e New York, ma il senso dei luoghi è più psicologico che geografico. Primi piani di mani, volti e profili irrequieti evocano un senso di ignoto.
Gli oggetti – coltello, arancia, dado, prisma, compasso, penna, lente, pendolo – vengono raccolti, spostati, messi in equilibrio. Esaminati pensosamente. Le cose note divengono tanto meno familiari quanto più vengono osservate. Come se le forze magiche che fanno sembrare il mondo così normale avessero, per un tempo vagamente breve, rivelato la loro bizzarria.
Il leitmotiv della collezione sono le impunture. Un effetto grafico – grandi, piccole, in colori contrastanti – che rivoluziona e mescola i codici classici mentre ne crea di nuovi. Le proporzioni moderne e le forme evocano gli anni settanta, non come parodia ma come genuina particolarità.
Il colore sobrio delle immagini vira a un risoluto bianco e nero, e poi viceversa, rispecchiando la concentrazione mentale frammentaria dei quattro attori. Il silenzio è uno spazio che custodisce segreti. In queste fotografie ciascuna delle loro personalità rappresenta senza sforzo un mistero nuovo.
