I've been a fan of Tommaso Aquilano and Roberto Rimondi for years. From their eponymous label (Aquilano.Rimondi) and 6267 to seeing what they did at Ferré, I was glad to see them land at Piazza Sempione. Though it's a capsule collection (for the 20th anniversary) and not the main line for spring, the duo's fit with the brand is good. It works. And I was, of course, thrilled to be able to see the clothes in person. Milan is a far ways to travel, after all.
The clothes are expertly tailored (a strong suit with the designers), clean, and modern. Embellishments were kept to a minimum, though there was a paillette-covered dress that I went gaga for. A loose silhouette that shimmers is just what the season calls for!
