The Movement - Presentation of the collection

“ The Movement was born from a lifelong fascination I have had with ballet and the beauty of the body in movement. I love the way dance translates emotion through gesture, breathing, and fluidity. It is this grace that I wanted to transcribe in our pieces.”

Each garment was designed to complement the body, to liberate it while emphasizing its natural elegance. The lines are clean, the cuts precise, the materials airy. I wanted every woman to feel both sophisticated and free when wearing them.

Beyond the clothes, it was essential for me that the photos in the collection also convey emotion. I wanted them to be in motion, imbued with grace and elegance. That's why it was an obvious choice to work with the photographer Isshogai and model Lia Kemendi. Lia, through her dance, exudes a rare intensity, an inner strength that is felt in every gesture. With great talent, Isshogai and Lia were able to translate what I wanted to convey through this collection: momentum, freedom, femininity, grace, and the beauty of movement.

Her arm is gracefully extended, while her leg is raised in a dynamic position, illustrating the beauty and precision of ballet. The image captures the essence of the art of movement, showcasing the dancer's body as a true work of art in action.

This first painting is an ode to the plurality of movement, enriched by my inspirations from art and literature. The fabrics, chosen from the finest Italian and French houses, reflect this demand for authenticity and refinement.

With The Movement, I celebrate grace, momentum and the breath that inhabits every gesture.”
