A bridal bouquet is the perfect picture to represent the new Frankie Morello Fall/Winter 09/10 collection. That’s true not only because of the floral explosion on the pants with appliqués and printed jackets but especially because it look like the whole collection has been created with big petals and bows.

Pants like flowering meadow, skirts like blossomed roses and dresses like giant cockades remind showy bouquets or a big sweet wedding cake. Colours in the collection are sometimes the soft marriage ceremony nuance such as light pink, powder tone, cyclamen-colour. Other times gaudy colour appear, like green, fuchsia and orange.

Geometries, ethnic inspirations, silhouette sometimes soft and flowing and other times tight-fitting to the body, give life to the creations of the new collection by Emilio Pucci played on the combination black and white.

Two classic and basic tones to inspire patterns that originate from the unique coloured prints created by the designer Emilio Pucci but, this time, are realized in a refined bi-coloured version.

Elegance and beauty are the words to rank the woman inspiring Alberta Ferretti. “Not usual women who knows how to manage the power of romanticism”, they are the women that inspire the designer who is thinking about ethereal beings, Olympus goddess, muses of ancient Greece, has created a Spring/Summer collection worthy of their divine beauty.

Peplum-dresses, soft tuniques, impalpable blouses, light petticoats gently wrap strict and sinuous silhouettes that are at the same time brushed by seductive drapery, pleats, flowing gatherings and embossed fabric.
Jais and crystals embellish the straps of the mini-dresses and are also fixed on the flowing fabrics that are gathered on the hip of modern revision of the peplum.

The dominant colours is that of the different tones of grey, emerald green, sand and gold, creating soft shades. The prints, like painting, reproduce ancient Greek statues, while the embroideries recreate the memory of the friezes of the Acropolis in Athens, a place of mythological muses and inspirations that still survive in our days.

These are two pictures of the new fashion boutique Giglio Donna’s interior which has been redecorated and enlarged by the addiction of the upper floor.

Now, the entire sales area is over 1200 square meters that are intended for the display of the most prestigious fashion collections. Through this remarkable enlargement, the new Boutique Giglio is the biggest luxury multi-brand in Italy, as regards both dimensions and number of labels.

The new upper floor is dedicated to women’s clothing while the lower floor is totally intended for shoes, bags and accessories of the most important women’s fashion labels , such as Gucci, Prada, Armani, Versace, Cavalli, Fendi, Valentino, Dior, Paciotti, Richmond, Tod’s and, as we have already announced, two new entries: Jimmy Choo and Zanotti Design.

One of them has a satin effect, the other one is multicoloured, both of them feature patent leather. They are two of the fabulous handbags of the D&G spring-summer collection. Red, blue and with tones alternate on shoes, handbags and belts for the new season.

Dolce and Gabbana took inspiration from the classic shape of the doctor’s bag and combined its old fashion style with the patent trend. Furthermore, the bright colours and the studs complement the style of these accessories characterized by comfort, thanks to their large size. It’s also easy to match them with every look. Finally, there is also the black patent leather bon ton version.

The D&G handbags, as well as all the other D&G accessories, are available at our fashion stores Giglio In and Giglio Accessori. They will be soon on sale at our brand-new online store too.

The new Roberto Cavalli’s collection in a tribute to the ‘70s, properly reconsidered according to innovation. Innovations into style, patterns, matches, prints and materials. The flamingo printed blouse with the python-skin mini skirt is one example. Wide-leg trousers, puff sleeve blouses, lurex long dresses, mini skirts and printed tights are the key pieces of the Just Cavalli wardrobe for 2008/09 fall-winter.

Armani doesn’t change the key aspects of his style with his new Emporio Armani fall winter collection that seems to be designed for a woman who lives the busy life of the city and still doesn’t give up the pleasure of night life. Ultra-flat shoes, classic suits, wide-leg trousers or boy-style ones alternate with short dresses, crystals and glittering details, pretty skirts and embroidery. Colours derive from black and grey nuances, perfectly consistent with Armani’s style, with just a few of magenta details.

The aim of the brand it’s to create articles of clothing which can face up to any weather conditions by making the best use of innovative materials and technical fabrics.

The Refrigiwear jackets feature an extraordinary wear resistance, heat proofing, comfort, lightness and wearability. They are realized for the Luxury and Basic collections and are available in different shapes, materials and colours.

The new spring/summer collection has all the trendiest colours of the season and it will be soon available at our new fashion store online, for men and women. The collection it’s on sale at our jeans store, Giglio Jeans, as well.

Spring is around the corner and the new collections will arrive soon. It’s quite a while since we saw 2008 spring summer fashion shows, so it can be helpful to start revising the trends that are in store for the new season.

The first issue is colours which grew in number in the hot weather enriching the wardrobe of nuances going from  pastel shades to gaudy tone. Sometimes, some unexpected combination can even happen. However, the best of springtime is just the possibility to play with colours. Why then don’t start with the colour of the sun?

Yellow appeared on nearly all Milan S/S catwalks for 2008, from the plain-coloured Versace dresses to the Fendi’s and Emilio Pucci’s prints. It also is one of the most seen colour of the Valentino’s palette. D&G and Gucci dresses are full of yellow details as well.

A blaze of emotions, elegance, fashion, celebrities (such as Liucy Liu, Uma Thurman and Claudia Chiffer) and for the finale a blaze of red. All that can describe the Valentino’s Haute Couture fashion show of, with which the famous designer said goodbye to fashion.

The 74 dresses that was shown on the catwalk celebrated, each one, the life and the story of the maison and his founder from the Sixties up to the present. The show ended with a marvellous parade of one red gown shown by several models.

We are sure that Alessandra Facchinetti, who has shown her talent during the experience at Gucci, will do a grate job. We also know that certainly we will miss a lot his predecessor, Valentino, who had been holding the reins of the maison for 45 years.

Let’s continue talking about ‘08/’09 fall-winter collections for men. Today we look at Monday’s catwalks that have seen the collections of Roberto Cavalli, John Richmond and Gucci.
 

The first thing we notice about Roberto Cavalli’s fashion show is a return to a more masculine look. This time extreme trends make a room for elegance, still keeping some transgressions. The favourite materials are velvet, for tuxedos, cashmere and leather, for the jackets. The soundtrack of the fashion show was a rock composition played by the Italian band, “Le Vibrazioni”.

The rock style shows itself on the Gucci’s catwalk too, but this time it does with the clothes and in a perfect mix of contemporaneity and tradition. Folk clothes find their inspiration in the tradition of east country, like Russia, and alternate with extremely modern element in the middle of the hussar style and the disco one.

The Gucci men are real rock stars getting their style from different worlds and sceneries to create their unique wardrobe. It’s a distinctive style that goes from the ‘70s and rock, with tight suits and undershirts, to Russia and the gipsy world, with hussar style decorations, precious fabrics like silk, cashmere and fur.

John Richmond gives free play to his evident rock inspiration. His entire ‘08/’09 fall winter collection seems to be originated from the notes of a rock music.

For the next fall-winter John Richmond men will wear deep red, blue and purple velvet suits, inspired by the Rolling Stones’ wardrobe and enrich it with dandy details like pashmina, London style hats, accessories and ankle boots.
