SILVER CHIC  is conceived as a fashion collection, inspired by the glamour and elegance of the most fascinating icons of the golden age of cinema. It is a homage to nostalgia’s magic and dreams.The apotheosis of this homage can be found in the coloristic punctiform vivacity of “PROUST II”, associated conceptually with the PROUST armchair designed by Alessandro Mendini. Designe are inspired by the world of couture - from chalk-stripes, hound’s tooth and classic tartan to herringbone - with marked contrasts between the materials - from woolly fabrics to the softest ones with their precious SILVER threads.
