Événements / Maison - 1/20/20
The 1 MONCLER PIERPAOLO PICCIOLI launch is the final date on the MONCLER GENIUS WORLD TOUR 19–20.
It culminates the blockbuster world tour that has brought Moncler Genius around the world, pairing each collection with a special activation curated to speak to their unique and inimitable character. The events have been celebrated with the same electrifying energy as tour dates, jumping from country to country, city to city, as the symposium of creatives took their unique spark of genius around the world.
1 –MONCLER PIERPAOLO PICCIOLI LAUNCH DATE: JANUARY 20TH
Pierpaolo Piccioli merged the language, the dreamy colors and the grandiose shapes of couture with patterns that recall African textiles, devised in collaboration with model Liya Kebede, who is an active supporter of African artisans with her label Lemlem. The collection is extremely focused, and features ballgowns with trains, hooded little jackets and sculptural capes that envelop the body in poetic ways. It immediately conveys a feeling of couture as couture is perceived in the collective imagination. The effect is as poignant as it is extravagant. What makes it fresh and unexpected is a double encounter: between couture forms and the functionality of Moncler, as expressed by the choice of nylon laqué as the only fabric; and between couture and African textiles, although rendered in
nylon. The mix works because it is a connection of differences and diversities that is truthful to the sensibility of Pierpaolo Piccioli, to the ethos of Liya Kebede and to the functionality of Moncler. It is a multicultural vision of inclusivity that augments Moncler’s idea of bringing designer visions to a transversal audience.
