It’s Valentine’s Day weekend. I know I’m in for a good show.
Giulietta designer Sofia Sizzi upped the ante for FW16 with a more aggressive tilt to her feminine silhouettes. Leather cigarette pants and bomber jackets gave a nod to 1960’s America and the grittier Parisian ‘80s showing us an edgier Giulietta woman than we’ve seen in seasons past.
I, for one, love the envelope pushing. Tear streaked models are cloaked in a palette of black and silver, accented by vivid red. A scrawling love letter print is shown, jewel encrusted, on a tuxedo jacket and again in Technicolor, resembling graffiti. There is a message here. Through the erratic emotions of love and heartbreak, comes strength.
Giulietta’s final looks continue this process of transformation. Sequins are used like a suit of armor in a sexy jumpsuit with an open back, and – my favorite – a show stopping floor length red dress. It ends in a black gown adorned with a crystal encrusted broken heart. This is the Heartbreak Hotel. We check in, but come out revolutionized.
