The right side of the moon”, name of Fall/Winter 2014-2015 menswear collection by the brilliant fashion designer Fabio Quaranta, reminded me another side of the mood, the dark side and the cult concept album by Pink Floyd, “The right side of the moon”, which has presented in Milan. Minimalism, an existentialist charm, fluid lines, dark colors – blue and black -,the fine research of cloths and lines that is a leitmotiv of Fabio’s work, emphasized by a suggestive installation which made me think about the “Iuav style”, the fashion of Fashion Design Faculty of Iuav University of Venice to set up the exhibitions it made as well as “Linen Yarn”, exhibition curated by Fabio Quaranta for Iuav (Fabio teaches at Iuav University of Venice, a smashing public fashion school I appreciate).

“The right side of the moon”, nome della collezione uomo autunno/inverno 2014-2015 del brillante fashion designer Fabio Quaranta, mi ha ricordato un’ altro lato della luna, il dark side e il concept album di culto dei Pink Floyd, “The right side of the moon” che è stata presentata a Milano. Minimalismo, un fascino esistenzialista, linee fluide, colori scuri – blu e nero -, la raffinata ricerca di tessuti e linee, leitmotiv dell’ opera di Fabio sono le alchimie della collezione, enfatizzate da una suggestiva installazione che mi ha fatto pensare allo “ stile Iuav”, la modalità della Facoltà di Fashion Design dell’ Università Iuav di Venezia di allestile le mostre come anche a “Linen Yarn”, la mostra curata da Fabio Quaranta per la Iuav (Fabio insegna presso l’ Università Iuav di Venezia, una formidabile scuola pubblica di moda che apprezzo).

An intimistic tale, lights and shadows make concrete a vibrant dialogue between art and fashion and talk about a today story which is always a mistery, the male elegance.

Quella fine ironia che è parte del creativo, del suo lavoro ed è impressa nello slogan “princess” che decora abiti, maglie, accessori e parla di una donna libera e sicura di sé che vive nella contemporaneità e al tempo stesso strizza l’ occhio al passato, alle suggestioni degli anni Sessanta.
