No introduction is needed to the black velvet dress; a timeless staple of the winter wardrobe that gets a makeover. The velvet dress can really have many souls, from office to ceremony. You just need to know how to choose and match it. The black velvet dress, with its versatile, wrap-around and truly feminine appeal, is the ultimate in elegance for a special occasion or end-of-year party. In the haute couture scene, there are many designers who have presented their idea of the velvet dress on the catwalk, redefining the concept of “classic” and shaping it to make it current and cool; there are many variations on the theme, and they do not only concern the fit or the length of the hemline, because the proposals can actually also take shape through the season’s trendy colors, which complement the timeless total black look. When you want to be flawless but are in a quandary about what dress to wear, there will always be a velvet dress to solve the situation in a jiffy: it should not be pulled out only for end-of-year parties, or for other special occasions: street style and fashionistas have already flaunted it, turning it into a garment to be used every day, and for every situation, especially for elegant dinners and evenings. My model of black silk velvet dress, long and with a slightly flared bottom; mysterious and charming, it has long sleeves, bias workmanship, with particular play of draping and refined details. Matching it is a handbag lined with silk fabric, containing, inside, a pretty coin purse.

Black crépe top – Bespoke
Top suitable for any occasion: asymmetrical cut, sleeveless and the game of crépe fabric, characterized by two straight, one satin, shiny and shaved, the other frizzy and opaque, which enhance the particularity of this model. The best piece of clothing with which to combine it, to enhance the silhouette and maintain a balance between the upper and lower body, is a pair of cigarette pants, in plain fabric or even in the capri model short at the ankles, or slightly flared leg, of the same color, to be shown off with high-heeled sandals.
Black Short Duchesse Skirt – Bespoke
From its invention in 1963 at the touch of Mary Quant to the present day, the miniskirt continues to make hearts beat regardless of style, age or physicality. Versatile, feminine and revolutionary, it has conquered the recent catwalks, undermining overly short designs by returning to its classic silhouette.
Among the trends of the moment, the short skirt can be worn at all ages. In recent collections, the miniskirt is rediscovering sexy with taste, thanks to strategic combinations and cuts. Slightly longer than in the past, it becomes a versatile piece, making it suitable even for those without gazelle legs.
For those in their 50s or 60s who do not want to give up the miniskirt, the secret is to go for total black. Black has always been a safe harbour: the colour that instils more confidence, allowing you to dare to look a little more.
My miniskirt, made of fine silk duchesse in black, features a side closure with invisible zip and belt loops. It is combined with an elegant and versatile straight line silk jersey shirt; with visible buttoning. The garments were entirely made and finished by hand.
Sequined tulle skirt – Bespoke
The pencil skirt is a classic of elegance and is absolutely among the skirts to have in your wardrobe. Glamorous and glamorous, it is the passe-partout for the party season and beyond.
Refined and with an ever-present charm, the pencil skirt was brought to success in the 1950s by Christian Dior who, in 1954, actually paraded very wearable pencils. In fact, already in the early 1900s, women wore very tight but, indeed, unfinished skirts. It was in the following decades that it established itself as a true symbol of femininity thanks to the appeal that its typical close-fitting silhouette is capable of exerting. In this case, we are talking about the sequin pencil skirt, a decidedly more unconventional variant of the minimal one we are usually used to.
My pencil skirt model is characterised by its length, just below the knee at the front and up to the calf at the back; it has a simple line that follows the body's shape, enhancing it but without constricting it. The sequined tulle fabric is decidedly dark and glittery, making it very elegant and sensual. Perfect to wear during the holidays or as a joker to enhance a more casual outfit, the sequin pencil skirt will be the star of your every look; it is made of sequined, lined, double-length tulle.

Pink cut-out dress in embroidered silk georgette – Bespoke
In the 1990s the cut-out dress became a must. Lo rese famoso Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman con il suo look che tutti ricordiamo.
After a long period, the Spring-Summer 2023 fashion shows marked its return, a glamorous, sought-after, trendy, and glamorous trend.
It is certainly not surprising that one of the most feminine dresses was actually created by a woman. The protagonist of the catwalks for at least three seasons has been the Albanian-born, London-based designer Nensi Dojaka; it is only right, however, to mention that the record for invention, in modern times and precisely in the 1990s, belongs to Miuccia Prada.
The cut out dress is the ideal garment to show off at any time of year and for any elegant occasion; midi or short, sleeveless or long-sleeved, in floaty or structured fabric, there is a suitable model for everyone, enhancing the silhouette and the strengths of the physique with its ad hoc cuts.
My one-of-a-kind cut-out dress, with its distinctive slits framing the waist and bust, is made of embroidered silk georgette with grosgrain inserts and a back top closure with covered buttons. Packaging and all finishing were done by hand.
Red sheath dress with petals
The sheath dress is the perfect dress for special occasions. There are timeless dresses that make you feel elegant and flawless on any occasion. The sheath dress turns out to be the garment par excellence for enhancing the beauty and femininity of every woman. This dress is a true passe-partout that looks good on just about everyone and can be worn in any context. In all its forms, volumes, materials and colors, it has been the star of the collections of Dior, Versace, Vivienne Westwood, Jean Paul Gaultier and Prada, but history teaches us that the sheath dress, whether renewed or similar to the original, always embodies perfection. Seductive, chic, delicate and perfect for minimizing small flaws, this garment becomes the ally for special situations, but not only, since its versatility allows you to venture with less sophisticated combinations, thanks to which you can dilute the classic style. Even today, the best fashion brands and internationally known designers still offer the sheath dress that fits, without any problem, any physique and in so many versions. In fact, the collections include long, short, particularly tight-fitting, more or less low-cut versions with original details. We must also add that the fit is comfortable, an aspect appreciated by women who always like to feel comfortable and move with complete freedom. This red, ankle-length sheath dress I offer in a sleeveless version; elegant and eye-catching in crépe cady fabric. Accompanied by a hairband hand-lined with the same fabric. Detail of petals applied on the neckline, removable. Essential for not going unnoticed.
Gray pantsuit
The Tailleur is the counterpart of the men's suit and, in the 1980s, symbolized the professional rampantism of career women. The first was made in 1885 by English tailor John Redfern for the Princess of Wales, taking up the styles of the so-called German hongreline. The suit made by Redfern was no-frills, paired with masculine accessories (such as a vest and tie), but was anything but comfortable. Despite this, it symbolizes one of the first steps toward women's emancipation. In the late 1920s Mademoiselle Coco, freed women from unnecessary constraints by making a soft jersey suit, feminine and practical, with a knee-length skirt. In the fashion world, the suit has found much success, especially in ready-to-wear fashion shows. In 1966 Yves Saint Laurent proposed a pantsuit and transformed it into the first women's tuxedo suit, making it eye-catching and extremely sensual. In the following decades to the present, the pantsuit has paraded on dozens of runways, continually reinventing itself in colors, fabrics and cuts, now rigorous, now provocative, worn like a second skin with nothing underneath, as Armani suggested in 1993. The pantsuit thus discovers its dual soul: on the one hand the confident, convention-defying, masculine and provocative at the same time; on the other hand the fairy-tale allure, romantic and elegant. My pantsuit is in Loro Piana's 130's wool fabric, over line and fit; jacket with inside pocket and handmade buttonholes. A timeless garment of women's fashion.
Cady crepe longuette dress – Bespoke
Iconic, feminine and above all versatile and always up-to-date, the black dress is a passe-par-tout garment. In fact, it does not just adapt, but transforms, combining tradition and innovation. It was Coco Chanel who made it a symbol of elegance and style when she introduced the 'Chanel black dress' in the 1920s, a simple and sophisticated design that revolutionised fashion at the time. With Coco, the black dress became elegant and chic, adaptable and perfect for different occasions. A timeless garment.
My elegant and sophisticated black longuette dress, in soft and enveloping cady crepe, aligns with the minimalist trend, with clean, essential and tailored lines, embellished with a small drape on the front that ends on the left shoulder. The added value of the garment is the finishing touches that are all handmade. It reminds us of the importance of simple, well-cut garments, indispensable in every woman's wardrobe.
If it is true that total black looks are a certainty, it is also true that the black dress allows us to experiment with new colour combinations, creating looks with great visual impact.
Accessories play an important role in enhancing the black dress and allowing us to create unique looks. If in doubt, a black bag and shoes are the choice you can never go wrong with.
Beaded embroidered fabric blouse
Fall-Winter trends see us clearly: not just earrings and necklaces. For sparkling outfits, a jeweled top is the must-have style detail, worn gracefully, like my black fabric blouse embroidered with black and white beads. The blouse is sleeveless, silk-lined, with hems and edges finished with hand-applied beading. Accompanied by a handmade purse made from the same fabric as the blouse and lined inside; inside, a small handmade coin purse. In the run-up to the Holidays, and beyond, it's a piece that allows you to add a sparkling touch in small doses, even during the day; knowing how to pair it with class is important. The bijoux? They are not needed.
Linen and silk trouser suit with trousers, jacket and structured top – Bespoke
To dress power in order to express power: this was the categorical imperative followed, for entire generations, by women in order to begin to carve out positions of prominence and, therefore, it was important to find non-verbal communicative codes in order to emphasise this turning point.
The suit, which up to that point still consisted of a skirt and a tunic, is the one that most clearly expressed this transition.
In 1966, Yves Saint Laurent launched Le Smoking, an elegant trouser suit for evening wear. Versatile and elegant, but also youthful and seductive, it is one of the few garments that all women, at least once in their lives, wear. Whether with long, palazzo, cigarette or flared trousers; with a fitted, double-breasted jacket and shocking, garish or total black colours. Constantly evolving, never changing: the ladies' suit is and will remain synonymous with class and sophistication.
The women's trouser suit is an example of ultra-glamorous modern tailoring and the recent catwalks are re-proposing it, designed for hybrid lifestyles, with different combinations under jackets: from a shirt, to a waistcoat, to a structured top or even directly with a closed double-breasted blazer, worn without anything underneath.
Out of the chorus and for those who, while dressing classy, feel like daring, my tailored suit for every occasion is colourful, in bright linen and silk fabric. It has a lined double-breasted jacket with peaked lapels, combined with wide-flared trousers. To make it decidedly more feminine, a top in the same fabric.
