GIORGIO ARMANIARMANI/ARCHIVIO SS1990 WRAP-EFFECT SKIRT

Lookbook

Description

This skirt is the new edition of a style from the SS1990 Collection, a reinterpretation that is part of an outfit consisting of a jacket, blouse and skirt. This look, photographed for the SS1990 campaign by Jacques Olivar, represents a significant moment in the construction of a sophisticated and confident feminine image and features within a collection that combines cultural influences with cinematic references. The garment stands out for its wrap-around construction, defined by a wrapover effect with a wide waistband that accentuates the waistline. The draping that spreads out from the waistband introduces movement and depth, while the two tucks at the hem create a softened yet controlled balloon-like line. Crafted from iridescent peach-finish silk, the fabric's surface delicately reflects the light, highlighting the garment's fluidity and contributing to an elegant and dynamic image. The Spring/Summer 1990 collection combines different cultural and geographical influences in a coherent and modern idiom, built on layering, contrasts of volume and a strong focus on materials. Lightweight fabrics, evocative prints and iridescent embroidery create depth and movement, shaping a rich yet controlled aesthetic. This vision, filtered through a Western interpretation, is linked to the poetics of Leon Bakst, set and costume designer for the Ballets Russes, while embellishments and finishes are enriched with cinematic references, such as the costumes of the Nibelunghi from La Corona di Ferro (1941) by Alessandro Blasetti, creating a balance between history, myth and modern perception.
