Short or just below the knee, minimal or with couture details. The sheath dress is the great fashion classic for every season. The elegant sheath dress is an absolute passepartout for formal day and evening occasions. His secret? Chosen in the right variant, it slims and slims.
Born of Coco Chanel’s extraordinary ingenuity in the 1920s, it experienced its heyday when Audrey Hepburn wore a fine Givenchy sheath dress in the famous film Breakfast at Tiffany’s, consecrating the sheath dress as synonymous with ‘noble simplicity and quiet grandeur’. The 1990s, on the other hand, ushered in the era of the sheath dress above the knee, fitted and sensual.
My sheath dress in glitter fabric is essential, refined and full of grace: no garment reflects these qualities more than the sheath dress. Grandiose in its simplicity, it encapsulates the purest essence of femininity, capable of bewitching, seducing and provoking.
Glitter is a transparent fabric worked with a needle, bobbin or crochet, by sewing, knotting and weaving threads of all kinds: gold, silver, linen, silk and cotton.
The latter exerts a subtle fascination for its transparency, for the harmony between fullness and emptiness, for its almost mythical evocative power, for being a symbol of elegance and grace.
Finally, a perfect idea for more elegant occasions is the cape, to be chosen coloured or with fringes for a cooler effect or very smooth for a more essential outfit.
As accessories, high-heeled pumps or very slender sandals and vertiginous pumps are a great classic, to be used strictly for romantic evenings or ultra-glamorous events.

White cotton shirt – Bespoke
There are countless variations on the theme that have allowed the white shirt to become an essential garment, a passe-partout that goes with everything. In multiple outfits, we realise that the shirt is no longer one and only one, starched and impeccably tailored, it is constantly transformed: casual with a pair of jeans or a short, blinged-out skirt, minimal with a tube skirt and out of the box when worn as a cover-up. Gianfranco Ferrè claimed that 'more than one outfit can revolve around the simplicity of a white shirt'. There is also the propensity for androgyny, one of the most iconic looks with the white shirt, when combined with a man's tie; slung over the shoulders, in the manner of Marlene Dietrich, or knotted at the collar to tighten the collar, a habit exhibited in Madonna's youth.

Structured bustier top in crépe
My structured crépe bustier top is lined, with a zipper closure. Refined, exclusive and very comfortable, with invisible zipper back opening. Sleeveless and strapless bustier, straight line that accompanies the bust silhouette, hip length; it is perfect for elegant and sophisticated evenings. Its strength is its versatility: elegant and sophisticated, worthy of grand occasions; more practical and casual when worn with pants or pencil skirt of the same color. The corset (now bustier top) is a garment that has a long history behind it. Originally worn in the 16th century, the corset was used to shape the female figure, creating an hourglass silhouette. Over the centuries, the corset has become a symbol of femininity and seduction, but it has also been opposed for its effects on women's health. However, in recent years, the corset is experiencing something of a resurgence, becoming a fashion item again. Celebrities and influencers around the world have begun wearing bustiers as crop tops or as overlays on other garments. This new way of wearing the corset made the garment more accessible and less restrictive.
Short trapeze dress with sequins – Bespoke
Straight from the 1960s to the present day, the trapeze dress is back in fashion; it is a simple garment, reduced to the essentials, which allows the figure to be slender thanks to the shorter hemline and the waistline that is not marked, leaving the curves of the body undefined. That is why it is the dress that suits everyone.
Once again it was Yves Saint Laurent who revolutionised fashion; in 1958, he created the Trapeze line. The success was immediate: women were looking for lightness and simplicity, after the metres of fabric protagonists of the 1950s. The collection was received with a standing ovation, literally changing the trends of the time and making a profound mark on the 1960s.
What is new is that for designers, the trapeze dress of sequins and the like can also be worn in daylight.
A fashion trend already announced by the New York shows, sequins will also dominate fashion in the coming seasons.
My trapeze dress is made of a wool blend with sequins and lined with silk taffeta fabric, entirely made and finished by hand.
Black silk jersey shirt – Bespoke
The silk jersey blouse is the shirt for great occasions. Elegant and refined, it is characterised by a soft fit, thanks to the fabric that makes it essential and very feminine; perfect for those who pay attention to every detail of their look.
Made of pure silk jersey, with a straight line and embellished with exclusive visible buttons, this shirt is ideal for important occasions such as elegant dinners or business meetings. Garment made and finished entirely by hand.
Black crépe cady crop top
Those who were teenagers in the 1990s will certainly remember it: the crop top is that top, either long-sleeved or short-sleeved, that is shorter on the belly and leaves the belly button exposed. The crop top generally has a straight cut; only the fitted version is contoured, which shows off the belly. It is important to choose the right model for each body shape: the more fitted cuts are perfect for those with narrow waists and small breasts such as the pear-shaped woman or the woman who has a rectangle physique, to emphasize the waist more. Those with prosperous breasts or an apple physique should aim for a softer model that hides roundness. The perfect outfit to match the crop top is one that is composed of a high-waisted garment, whether it is a skirt or pants. My crop top is structured-cut in crépe cady fabric, strapless to enhance the décolleté; for a total black outfit, a tailored blazer or an elegant, strapless, structured-cut crop top is recommended, accompanied by pointed ballet flats or an elegant pumps
Linen and silk trouser suit with trousers, jacket and structured top – Bespoke
To dress power in order to express power: this was the categorical imperative followed, for entire generations, by women in order to begin to carve out positions of prominence and, therefore, it was important to find non-verbal communicative codes in order to emphasise this turning point.
The suit, which up to that point still consisted of a skirt and a tunic, is the one that most clearly expressed this transition.
In 1966, Yves Saint Laurent launched Le Smoking, an elegant trouser suit for evening wear. Versatile and elegant, but also youthful and seductive, it is one of the few garments that all women, at least once in their lives, wear. Whether with long, palazzo, cigarette or flared trousers; with a fitted, double-breasted jacket and shocking, garish or total black colours. Constantly evolving, never changing: the ladies' suit is and will remain synonymous with class and sophistication.
The women's trouser suit is an example of ultra-glamorous modern tailoring and the recent catwalks are re-proposing it, designed for hybrid lifestyles, with different combinations under jackets: from a shirt, to a waistcoat, to a structured top or even directly with a closed double-breasted blazer, worn without anything underneath.
Out of the chorus and for those who, while dressing classy, feel like daring, my tailored suit for every occasion is colourful, in bright linen and silk fabric. It has a lined double-breasted jacket with peaked lapels, combined with wide-flared trousers. To make it decidedly more feminine, a top in the same fabric.

Cady crepe longuette dress – Bespoke
Iconic, feminine and above all versatile and always up-to-date, the black dress is a passe-par-tout garment. In fact, it does not just adapt, but transforms, combining tradition and innovation. It was Coco Chanel who made it a symbol of elegance and style when she introduced the 'Chanel black dress' in the 1920s, a simple and sophisticated design that revolutionised fashion at the time. With Coco, the black dress became elegant and chic, adaptable and perfect for different occasions. A timeless garment.
My elegant and sophisticated black longuette dress, in soft and enveloping cady crepe, aligns with the minimalist trend, with clean, essential and tailored lines, embellished with a small drape on the front that ends on the left shoulder. The added value of the garment is the finishing touches that are all handmade. It reminds us of the importance of simple, well-cut garments, indispensable in every woman's wardrobe.
If it is true that total black looks are a certainty, it is also true that the black dress allows us to experiment with new colour combinations, creating looks with great visual impact.
Accessories play an important role in enhancing the black dress and allowing us to create unique looks. If in doubt, a black bag and shoes are the choice you can never go wrong with.
Black wool trouser suit – bespoke
In the 1920s, French fashion designer Coco Chanel made her triumphant entrance onto the fashion scene. With a rebellious spirit and an eye for change, Chanel decided it was time to shake things up and did so with the Trouser Tailleur.
Chanel understood that women needed clothes that could cope with their increasing independence and participation in social activities. Giorgio Armani had also understood the revolutionary change. In the 1980s (a time of social change) he emphasised the importance of proposing clothing that was both elegant and functional and redefined the concept of the women's trouser suit, conveying a message of emancipation, class and sophistication.
The history of the pantsuit teaches us that fashion is a way of communicating, expressing ideas and changing the world. Innovation in trouser suits has embraced the idea of customisation, allowing women to tailor the garment to their own taste and lifestyle. Punctually, as in every season, the trouser suit will be the absolute star of the wardrobe. Matching jacket and trousers are a big trend of the last few seasons, and for those coming up, too, it is a trend that is bound to get noticed.
Autumn-Winter is all about wool, as is my Tailleur black pure wool tailored trouser suit and two-button jacket, refined and very elegant combined, in this case, with a pure silk shirt.

Pink cut-out dress in embroidered silk georgette – Bespoke
In the 1990s the cut-out dress became a must. Lo rese famoso Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman con il suo look che tutti ricordiamo.
After a long period, the Spring-Summer 2023 fashion shows marked its return, a glamorous, sought-after, trendy, and glamorous trend.
It is certainly not surprising that one of the most feminine dresses was actually created by a woman. The protagonist of the catwalks for at least three seasons has been the Albanian-born, London-based designer Nensi Dojaka; it is only right, however, to mention that the record for invention, in modern times and precisely in the 1990s, belongs to Miuccia Prada.
The cut out dress is the ideal garment to show off at any time of year and for any elegant occasion; midi or short, sleeveless or long-sleeved, in floaty or structured fabric, there is a suitable model for everyone, enhancing the silhouette and the strengths of the physique with its ad hoc cuts.
My one-of-a-kind cut-out dress, with its distinctive slits framing the waist and bust, is made of embroidered silk georgette with grosgrain inserts and a back top closure with covered buttons. Packaging and all finishing were done by hand.
