The Sylvio Giardina Fall 2013 collection is showcased in the label's latest lookbook. Highlighting a fashionably futuristic aesthetic, this womenswear line gains its direct design inspiration from the soundtrack of 80s cult classic film, 'The Hunger'.
Exploring movement and added three dimensional elements, the Italian designer transforms classic womenswear silhouettes into contemporary and sculpturally accented garments. Moreover, he revives 50s and 60s styling for a new generation of fashion risk-takers.
The Sylvio Giardina Fall 2013 collection channels a sci-fi inspiration and mixes moulded neoprene with wool and rubber merged materials that make the designer's abstract vision come to life. Giardina's collection also exudes a sportswear sensibility that is elevated and made more elegant with the help of cinched waist silhouettes that evoke a traditional definition of femininity.
