The collection is characterized by asymmetrical cuts, sculptural lines in motion that became the stylistic hallmark of the Maison, is divided into 3 main outfits: pantsuits, kaftans and evening dresses. The kaftans, inspired by Capri, an area identified in myths and history as the"island of the sirens", are characterized by asymmetrical cuts and double fabrics (chiffon on satin chain, otherwise known as"charmeuse", and crêpe cady mixed with gazar)
The embroideries are handmade with crystals and give a watery effect, recalling seaweed, stinging curls or coral designs.
The colors reflect the marine setting: from mother-of-pearl to black and abyssal blue, from aqua green toaquamarine, up to purple violet and lilac oyster that recall sea anemones
