Ten years has passed since the birth of the special fragrance branded by Viktor&Rolf!

The idea was born from their belief in fascinating power of perfumes, and in 2005 it finally became reality with Flowerbomb. At that time the product has been launched giving the same name to the spring/summer collection: an explosion of ribbons and colors, with the surreal sight of a woman with her head tied in a florist’s bag. The successful fragrance, created by Olivier Polge, Carlos Benaim e Domitille Bertier, has been celebrated last 8th of June at the Trianon in Paris.

Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren have met in Arnhem during their Fashion studies. After degree they decided to move to Paris and work together. In the same year they won three prizes at the Salon Européen des Jeunes Stylistes in Hyères during the International Festival of Fashion and Photography. Later in 1998, after four collections exhibited in several experimental art spaces, they turned out on official fashion scenes with their first haute couture collection.

In their last collection “Wearable art” the duo used a mingling of fashion and art as a means of expression. Composed by dresses transformed into an artworks, the collection has took the stage at the Mezzanine of the Palais de Tokyo and transformed Golden Age paintings with the rawness and spontaneity of action painting. The painterly gesture is achieved through trompe l’oeil techniques: each artwork is executed in a layering of laser-cut jacquards, embroideries and appliqués.

For this A/W 2015 Artisanal collection, John Galliano designed for Maison Margiela an engaging duvet dress, whose fabric twisted and bundled partly covered in plastic sheeting. The design, which was shown beside a collection that strongly reaffirmed the historical codes of the Maison and which recalled its unconventional past, does not just place itself in the memories of the old days. A celebration of the founder genius, it refers to a previous Maison Martin Margiela design from A/W 1999, the duvet coat.

The coat, which was rectangular shaped to resemble once folded a proper duvet, was made in cotton and filled with down feathers. It featured two detachable arms and could also be paired with covers in different material and plastic sheets to customize it. Designed to be, oddly, multifunctional, the coat could be also worn as a dress, a waistcoat or a wrap. Produced by an Italian factory that actually realizes duvets, this piece perfectly embodied the spirit of what was the soon-to-be-established Artisanal line.

The different ways the coat could be worn were all shown in a video that Martin Margiela directed and showed in his showroom in 1999. A small cinema, all painted in white, was infact installed into the building and also popcorns and softdrinks were served to those invited to attend the screening. The video featured two models wearing the clothes and the accessories from the collection which included, along with the duvet coat a series of lining dresses and skirts, menswear designs and a series of artisanal garments reworked by hand.

A fashion industry pioneer, Fiorucci brought the style of the Swinging London to Milan when in 1967 he opened his first boutique and conquered the world of fashion with his brilliant, vivacious revolutionary taste.

Elio Fiorucci passed away at the age of 80 in his home in Milan, where he was found this Monday morning. A fashion revolutionary, Elio Fiorucci opened his first store in Milan in 1967, bringing the style of the Swinging London to the traditionalist and conservative Italian city. His clothes broke the rules and his skinny jeans, that he designed after a trip to Ibiza where he was impressed with the way wet jeans fit and showed women’s body and curves, became a desirable garment for every girl in the world during the 70s.

In 1976 Fiorucci opened his legendary New York store: located in East Midtown it soon became the place where to live the culture of 70s and 80s. It hosted Keith Haring and Andy Warhol’s events and was frequently visited by Madonna, Cher and a fifteen years old Marc Jacobs that skipped summer school to pass his time in it.

Its bold commercials, that featured controversial artists like Divine, where directed by Oliviero Toscani with the help of Terry Jones, later founder of i-D Magazine. Collecting around him the most interesting people of the moment, Fiorucci and his store were indeed a reference point in New York City. From his store Warhol’s first issue of Interview Magazine as well as Paper Magazine where launched. Besides the Milan’s flagship store, was completely re-styled by Keith Haring in 1984.

To face the heat of this summer, Europeana Fashion has selected some special beachwear related items from its archive!

As one of the most significative symbol of society costume developing, Beach and Swimwear have an interesting story.

The great innovation took place in 1946, when the french tailor Louis Réard invented the bikini. The name comes from the Bikini atoll of Marshall’s Islands, where US used to do nuclear tests.

Réard gave this name to the new swimsuit because of the explosive and shocking effects he was sure it was going to have on the customers. The impact was indeed so strong for costume habits of that age that it took 15 years for the bikini to be accepted by the United States.

Italian history has been, and still is, an immense source of inspirations for various designers!

As a statement of this relationship stands out Pizzia Armerina, in Sicily and its stunning Roman mosaics, which has been an inspiration, among other Italian beauties, of Emilio Pucci, who in 1956 designed the Iconic S/S “Sicilian Collection”, inspired indeed by the beautiful architecture and decorations of the Mediterranean region. More recently, in 2013, Dolce & Gabbana unveiled a breathtaking F/W 2014 collection inspired by the mosaic of the building.

The excavations to bring the Villa back to light began in 1929 and concluded only thirty years later.

Called subligaculum, it was a an underwear piece whose name translated from Latin means “to tie underneath”.

Micol Fontana, the Italian couturier loved by Hollywood Divas, died on the 12 of June at the age of 101. The designer, that in 1958 was called with her sisters to represent the Italian style in a conference at the White House, always used to talk about herself as a simple seamstress.

It was the 1936 when Fontana sisters, supported by Micol herself, decided to move from the little town of Traversetolo to the city, looking for an opportunity in fashion. They chose Rome, instead of Milan, because of the magical air of inspiration of the Eternal City.

At the beginning they made little works as seamstresses at home or in ateliers, earning money for fabrics and working hard to gain the trust in their work environment. In 1943 they inaugurated their first atelier “Casa di moda sorelle Fontana” in Palazzo Orsini and started their brilliant career. Gioia Marconi, daughter of Guglielmo Marconi, has been their first important client.

In 1957 the success arrived for the three sisters by the commission of a wedding dress for Linda Christian, in occasion of her marriage with Tyrone Power. Then an undeniable talent made the atelier Fontana becoming famous by word of mouth in international aristocracy and jet-sets.

Among the others, the most loyal customer was Ava Gardner. She used Fontana’s dresses in many films, as “The barefoot contessa” in 1954, “The sun also rises” in 1957 and “On the beach” in 1959. Also Fontana’s sister realized for the actress the “Pretino” dress, that inspired Fellini so much as he wanted Anita Ekberg wearing it in “La Dolce Vita”.

In 1994 Micol Fontana created a Foundation with her name, to preserve the Atelier Fontana patrimony, composed of dresses, drawings, embroideries, fashion accessories and photographs as a memory from the past making available for future generations of fashion designers. So with the Foundation’s activities, Micol Fontana spent her time work around fashion until the end of her life. We will always remember her as the humble seamstress with a smart talent.

Fashion illustrations and prints were, before photography, the main media through which fashion was broadcasted. Magazines collected colored figures of models wearing fashionable clothes, often pictured in tableaux and reporting a short description. While most illustrators engraved every model with detailed precision to illustrate the garment paying attention to the reality, some others artists developed a personal style that made them recognizable. George Lepape, Erté and Paul Iribe were in fact usually involved by the great couturiers of their time to represents their creations.

Europeana Fashion collects a wide selection of beautiful fashion prints. Some of them belongs to the collection of Lipperheide Costume Library, that collects the prints of the fashion magazine printed by Franz and Frieda Lipperheide, which they generously donated to the Royal Museums in Berlin in 1899, Germany.
