PRADA SS24 MENSWEAR SHOW
The Spring/Summer 2024 Prada menswear collection by Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons explores the concept of fluid architecture in relation to the human body. It advocates for complete freedom of movement, which is conveyed through the fundamental elements of the clothing that adorns the body. The shirt serves as a starting point, with its structure and intricacies serving as the foundation for transforming various types of menswear, including suits, raincoats, active sportswear, and reporter jackets. The construction is reconsidered and reconstructed, departing from simplicity. The collection introduces the idea of expansion and amplification, creating a paradoxical relationship between the overall silhouette and the material used. The ultimate goal is to foster a constant awareness of the body and its liberation from within.

EMPORIO ARMANI MEN’S COLLECTION SPRING/SUMMER 2024
Moonlight glints over a seascape, parched rocks and desert scenes. Darkness spreads, diluted by a light that makes surfaces oily and shimmering. The new collection is a return to the essence of Emporio Armani, purified to the core and seen through the filter of moonlight. A dry yet vibrant romanticism moves between the extreme east and hypothetical north Africa.

MAGLIANO SS24 SHOW
At Palamagliano, a unique combination of a completed building and an ongoing construction site, a genuine invitation is extended through the presence of a functional runway, beckoning all to come and visit. However, the runway of Magliano serves a dual purpose by providing an opportunity to give something back. The garments featured in this setting bear inscriptions of prayers, epitaphs, and expressions of gratitude for both the present and future visitors. These messages are strategically placed to emphasize significant pleas, audacious challenges, and unforgettable impressions. The clothes themselves transform into cherished talismans due to the profound experiences that have transpired within this space. Just like the money that Alda Merini, the captivating figure of our season, once safeguarded close to her heart to escape poverty.

OUR LEGACY SPRING 24
The “Snow in April” collection by OUR LEGACY for Spring 24 draws inspiration from the unpredictable and undecided nature of early spring weather. It captures the essence of days that initially seem warm but suddenly turn colder, reminiscent of winter’s lingering presence. The collection reflects this phenomenon and, at times, emulates its characteristics. The garments are meticulously designed to provide a sense of insulation while maintaining a lightweight feel. The color palette features dry and dusty tones, such as golden brown, muddy lavender, carbon, and pink hues, which are typically associated with autumn but occasionally appear during the Swedish spring. Throughout the collection, these colors serve as subtle reminders of the transitioning seasons. Moreover, the collection incorporates graphic elements referencing horror movies, aligning with the conceptual theme of the overall design.

The visionary behind this endeavor is Silvia Venturini Fendi, the Artistic Director of Accessories and Menswear. The FENDI Mens Spring/Summer 2024 collection pays homage to this exciting new chapter while commemorating the historical significance of Florence.
