PARASULI
The collection “PARASULI” recounts the designer's vision related to the research and recovery of different materials from local markets, tailoring Archives, the recovery of abandoned pieces and the search in warehouses for disused fabrics: to research and design from the material at hand.
My garments are seasonless and made through sustainable practices that look to Mediterranean culture. Fresh wool, gabardine, nylon, fabrics not necessarily belonging to a seasonal category. Grays, khakis, navy blue contrast the bright colors of umbrellas. The white of the manually crocheted tank tops is a tartan thread salvaged from some old doilies.
"The beach umbrella is an element that I find interesting in design and composition, fun to break down."
The collection is born from the designer's personal concept to create garments that should be kept in the closet, a personal dress code: color blocking, technical materials and wool cloths. Defining the look is archival research; urban pieces, workwear suits and basic crop tops.
