Francesca Liberatore Arab Fashion Week Dubai Collection Runway Show AW 2022/23
After a special entry of the brand Francesca Liberatore in the Arab Fashion Week schedule, during the past Digital Fashion Week of February 2020, this is the first time that the official schedule hosted the live show of the Italian designer in Dubai, right after her runway in Milan Fashion Week calendar AW22/23.
In the amazing location of the Dubai Design District, Francesca Liberatore presented a beautiful collection assembled for this special occasion and with an eye to the Middle East taste: often the object is beautiful because the word is beautiful, a matter of language, so is the body seen through the dress, respectful of cultures and women.
Francesca Liberatore
Movement, gaze, perception for which the eye is not needed. Only those who know, feel and hear. The light of the contemporary becomes an act of faith for those who believe in their own reality, says Liberatore.
Creative madness is vital energy and joy, color and lightness, overlapping transparencies, lace, embroidery. Peony, peach, brilliant green, romantic deep necklines, precious linings for shirt jackets with a vintage flavor, touches of flame red that alternate with psychedelic black and white, dark and light. The lines are broken, creating asymmetries with which jackets and sweaters, dresses and robe manteau play with lacing and knotting.
Essential lines, proportions that become sober, severe in shifting lengths of elastic gauze, organza moving from the sheath to the godet circle skirt, squared necklines. Powerful dresses that find a taste of couture with the emotionality of gold lamé complemented with cream, gathering and peplums/flounces/ruffles for vests and skirts, a bolero with sumptuous curves.
An ascent from structure to lightness, from rigor to madness to face the theater of life with.
