MOODBOARD
Per la prima capsule della Primavera Estate ’25, Lorena Antoniazzi rinnova il guardaroba della donna contemporanea e senza tempo con una collezione divisa in tre temi distinti.
Il tema Denim esplora l’affascinante mondo dei blu, con denim blu in versioni sia scure che chiare. Il tema è ulteriormente arricchito da effetti denim in seta lino e lino viscosa, con un tocco di giallo e bianco che donano un accento fresco e vivace alla collezione.
Abbracciando i colori iconici del brand, il tema Timeless Colors si estende su una palette raffinata che va dall’avorio al beige, con varianti come sabbia, safari e greige. La palette è animata da note di blu pacifico, offrendo un contrasto sorprendente con il nero e le sfumature di grigio, incarnando l’eleganza e lusso sobrio.
Il tema Mix & Match, che rappresenta l’aspetto più romantico della collezione, si sviluppa in tonalità di rosso arancio e rosa deserto. Questi colori sono abbinati al bianco e crema, completati da sottili note di verde militare, creando un equilibrio armonioso e delicato che emana sofisticazione.
Un elemento distintivo che arricchisce questa collezione è la stella tridimensionale in Swarovski, che aggiunge un effetto punto luce su vari capi. L’ampia selezione di paillettes arricchisce ulteriormente la giacca elegante armaturata, la rugby polo e la iconica treccia Lorena, mostrando la dedizione del brand per l’artigianalità e il design innovativo.
