Megalopolis She-Warriors

Eye popping lights, excited megalopolis to walk through like she-warriors dressed up in a provocative and cinematic period, with a desire for the unreal.

Blue Chanel

A metallic-hued pilgrim, luminescent, as envisioned by Chanel, in a blue also proposed – or better unsaddled – by Ann Demeulemeester’s cuts. Much digitalized like a screen concealing the secrets of a hacker, the blue haunted by thin stripes for a sportswear-style suit with jacket by Peter Pilotto.

Mary Katrantzou
 labyrinth-like print

Over-enhaced shoulders, shown at Fendi, like the power style of the Eighties, mixed in with the 40's elegance, like the long number by Mary Katrantzou, on which a labyrinth-like print complicate the already complicated retro-futuristic path of the new urban Avatars. A reinforced glamour, highly structured, with revisited and exaggerated neckline, shoulders, waist and hips, or otherwise fluid yet metallic, like in the tulle and pleats and obi-style dresses by Fendi, showing a liquid modernity.

10 years later, in 2007. Viktor&Rolf cage their models inside a device that make them glide,put into cages, with garments suspended just like their pace. Like Birds of Paradise of tomorrow, the women clad in Moncler Gamme Rouge and presented like living artwork – caged in showcases - at the Royal Palace, in Paris in February 2007.

Thierry Mugler's
"Les Insectes"

Thierry Mugler more than anyone else  exaggerates the already sexual aggressive mood of the Eighties and becomes iconic. Especially with the dress in tulle and patent leather, a boudoir-style corset including garter belts and long sleeves and gloves, with bare skin only on the thighs, between stockings and a corset. Or, back to the idea of the Bird of Paradise, his “Papillon” dress, plumage that explodes on the bare back with colored feathers, opened up forming a wide wing: summer 1997 Haute Couture, “Les Insectes” collection.

In collaboration with Swarovski,Hussein Chalayan, celebrates the 111 years of activity of the fashion house with a sequence of dresses that open up like flowers, thanks to mechanical internal devices, and also to summer 2008.
