ALTAROMA: SABRINA PERSECHINO
Even for Fall/Winter 2015-16 is the strong bond of Sabrina Persechino between architecture and fashion offering, as leitmotif of the collection, in the manner of unusual decorations Arabic Muqarnas through tangles of velvets in silk and metal wires, soul to furniture fabrics.
On catwalk clothes made warps interior design worked and made ad hoc in order to create outfits for day, cocktail and great soirée. Continues the theme of multicultural, already faced with Creuset (S/S 2015), a collection charismatic and brings a strong message of harmony and balance between different ethnic groups. The choice is the Palatine Chapel in Palermo, where Ruggiero II had to pour the best cultural expressions of the three main ethnic groups then facing in its domain Sicilian: European art and architecture, and Sicilian Islamic. The dome, the transept and apses are entirely decorated in the upper part of Byzantine mosaics, among the most important in Sicily. The mosaic with the surface more or less heterogeneous and multifaceted is thought to be observed in the flickering light of the candles. Thus, the magnificent pointed arches suggest the austere forms of the clothes and hoods-coat colors sapphire, while the graft plan dome, erected over the three apses of the sanctuary, suggests the wide dresses in red. And the effect of uneven and faceted decoration is recreated in the new proposals colors ranging from white silver pearl, blue sapphire, passing through red and the inevitable gold. The Muqarna is just a gimmick decorative oriental architecture, it originated from the division of the surface of the corner niches filleting the plan sets circular dome with square or polygon based on numerous smaller niches.
