Vogue. Elsa Schiaparelli

Vogue on Designers

by Judith Watt

Vogue definì Elsa Schiaparelli un genio “più folle e più originale” dei suoi contemporanei, illustrando il suo stile e diffondendo campioni dei suoi modelli fin dagli esordi, dal primo rivoluzionario maglione trompe-l'ceil del 1927 fino all'abito-lacrima e al cappello-scarpa, oggetti di chiara ispirazione surrealista dei tardi anni Trenta. Spirito libero, collaboratrice di artisti del calibro di Salvador Dalí e Marcel Duchamp. la stilista ha realizzato abiti a forma di scheletro, bottiglie di profumo con le forme di Mae West e inventato il colore rosa shocking. “Vogue. Elsa Schiaparelli” presenta il lascito duraturo di questa donna audace e visionaria.

Zaten minder plaatjes in dan ik had verwacht, maar was daardoor lekker informatief!

I am not so familiar with Elsa Schiaparelli couture, with her upcoming exhibition I had to read this. It was beautifully portrayed as the okay woman who understood how to create art in fashion.

A really nice vogue profile of Elsa Schiaparelli. It's a great introduction to the "creator" of Shocking Pink!
