Max Mara meets Liu Wei
Print Edition
THE city of Shanghai set the scene for Max Mara Monopolis, a special runway event last week presenting the fashion house’s pre-fall 2017 line, which included a capsule collection designed in collaboration with contemporary Chinese artist Liu Wei.
Max Mara’s trademark camel-white-black trio met the Liu Wei color spectrum — crystalline tones that work together in seductive combinations. The runway presented 1940s-style razor sharp darted shoulders and cinched waists, vampishly ruched tulle skirts and dresses, glam new sweats, tailored pants and all-in-ones with gathered cuffs, knee high lace-up boots and reptilian chunky heeled pumps, a bag for every look.
The house’s staple: the coats — in opulent cashmere, camels’ hair and alpaca — combining decorous understatement with bombshell glamor like only Max Mara knows how.
The capsule collection included 11 pieces conceived in collaboration with Liu. Those pieces are executed in the signature Max Mara palette; camel, black and white. A glamorous wrap coat and a slouchy bomber are constructed from a layer of laser cut alpaca embroidered onto a base of wool and cashmere that shows Italian craftsmanship meets state-of-the-art technology.
The capsule was inspired by the city, a major theme for Liu whose work describes relentless march of progress, and shines a light on the grittier places behind those slick planes of concrete, gleaming glass and steel. Max Mara is all about the city too: the concrete jungle is the only place for a woman on her way to the top. Max Mara + Liu Wei is cosmopolitan, cool and collectable.
