hey siri, riproduci “song for guy” di elton john.
between the notes of a song by elton john and the words of a sonnet by shakespeare starts the collaboration between forte_forte and lessico familiare, a trio including alice curti, alberto petillo and riccardo scaburri.
the capsule collection has been previewed during paris’ fashion week in a poetic and refined café of marais.
a special event to meet brand’s friends, journalists, influencers and key opinion leaders, welcomed by the relaxed atmosphere which reflects the soft lines of the collection, while the pieces of “poem for a guy” ‘s collection runway among the bohemian breakfast tables.
emptying and remixing the wardrobe of male archetypes, the bohémien shirts triples, the extra-polished pyjamas widen, and the striped blazers go upside-down. the shakespearian puff sleeves support glittering ribbons - new neckties of this male uniform - while trench and montgomery coats lose their aggressive nature to introduce froufrou touches and sparkling bling bling.
a soft colour palette accompanies the collection: yellow, butter-like, canary-yellow, rose, powder pink and peach hues are the most powerful. on the background, there are ivory, optical, and dirty whites.
