By playing with textures - handled, cut, frayed, and melted – the collection experiments with craftsmanship and handmade uniqueness. Materials entertain pattern with imperfect perfection, evolving Ferragamo design.. Always seeking balance, the 3D allure of surfaces is expanded to showcase the purity of precise tailoring. Tops and skirts are married by sculptured details..
Pouch coats and short capes fastened at the waist with reptile leather belts are crafted from structural woven fabrics that also remember Salvatore’s original use of materials mixed with python or skin interspersed with woven snakeskin. Natural colours are broken by sudden bright flecks and metal veins that underscore a metamorphic quality. Materials with an organic effect on the exterior contrast with the bold sparkling satin interior linings that decorate garments.
The colour effects of murano glass are utilized and transformed into jacquard prints. Animal-print motifs and designs iconic to the House of Ferragamo recall the colours of reptiles which naturally merge with the geometrical patterns in a magmatic process of graphic and chromatic fusion. The vertical profile of the figure is enhanced by bold wedge heels, a design that remembers Salvatore’s original rainbow sandal with elements of early 1940s, this time modernized in monochromatic palettes reinforced by the luxurious details of tiny chains and exotic skins.
Handbags, a tribute to Ferragamo’s handcrafted elegance, come in the form of doctor bags referencing the use of mixed materials, chain shoulder clutch handbags with geometrical inserts, and mat tote bags with polychrome glass handles. Murano glass makes literal use of the Italian craft with bracelets, chains and clutches hand blown by craftsmen.
