Micol Ragni's Spring/Summer 2019 is an exploration of unconventional fashion. Diving into the limitless expressive properties of personal style, the Italian designer truly pushes the boundaries of what can be considered an outfit. The presentation depicts heavily experimental silhouettes that utilize attention-captivating fabrics — from baggy iridescent clunky boots to metallic PVC trench coats.
The Spring/Summer 2019 collection of unconventional fashion ensembles definitely relies on abstract movements in art, modern tendencies in sculpture, as well as the concept of hyper-feminity. Micol Ragni draws inspiration from John Chamberlain and Jon Rafman — two artists that are "recognized for their plastic and metal sculptural works."
