TRUSSARDI, THE NEW LUXURY

02/24/2013

A new concept of luxury is that proposed by Umit Benan with the Trussardi collection: in a natural way, without the effort of the fashionist, the woman for next autumn/winter composes a look that conveys the same feeling of spontaneity. Comfortable luxury, discreet, made of precious materials, particularly for the accessories: the hunting bag, the shiny leather shopper, loafers and boots. They are needed to escape from the city which is not an occasion for a trip, as in other times, nor a bucolic refuge in an unreality, rather the Trussardi woman is more concrete than ever - this is well confirmed by the timeless palette of colors (black, blue, brown, beige) and by the fact that she steals from her man’s wardrobe: the large volumes, the coats to the knee, the long trench, the geometric checks. But there is an intimate and delicate femininity that can be found in leather clothes or chiffon, in the pleated skirts with raw edges, in the spotted style. That of Trussardi is a fashion out of fashion, it's a lesson in style.
