There is no doubt that Elsa Schiaparelli was a radical woman. Today, after a few years of relaunching the brand, another irreverent designer comes to us to be in charge of this firm, he is Daniel Roseberry.

There is no doubt that <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/Fashion/women-history-month-fashion-designers-houses">Elsa Schiaparelli</a> was a <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/most-famous-women-history-female-trailblazer-womens-day-marie-curie-aretha-franklin-kamala-harris">disobedient woman</a><a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/pop-culture/most-famous-women-history-female-trailblazer-womens-day-marie-curie-aretha-franklin-kamala-harris"> </a>. Since she was a child, although she tried to fit into the world she had to live in, she chose the most unusual strategies to integrate into social norms. For example, since her mother did not consider her a &quot;beautiful girl,&quot; little Elsa would go for walks in the garden of her house in Rome to collect flowers, which she then put on her head, ears and nose, this with the purpose of appearing more beautiful in the eyes of others.

Disobeying was her motto for life , she married Wilhelm Wendt de Kerlor within 24 hours of meeting him; Later, when freed from this marriage, she settled in Paris , she met Poiret one day who, visiting the designer&#39;s fashion salons, decided to snoop among the fitting rooms and wear all the creations that she found in her path (it is said that he himself On that occasion Paul Poiret gave her a coat that Elsa found very well).

Thus, disobeying, he has given us iconic garments that are a reference in the history of fashion , and at the same time, an inspiration resource to posterity: the skeleton dress, the insect necklace or the lobster dress (with everything and parsley in its stamped) are hardly proof of this.

Related to the artistic avant-garde, she named herself an artist who made fashion , thereby winning many rivalries and creating controversy around her . She, with the sensitivity that characterized her, managed to understand that to propose a collection a theme was needed that would serve as a common thread, and she proposed the parades as great shows that served the same way to show the garments as to advertise the firm.

Today, after a few years of relaunching the brand , another disobedient designer comes to us to be in charge of this firm , he is <a href="https://www.lofficielmexico.com/moda/Schiaparelli-alta-costura-oto%C3%B1o-invierno-semana-moda-paris">Daniel Roseberry</a><a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/fashion-week/Schiaparelli-Haute-Couture-collection-2021-2022"> </a>. I am powerfully struck by the way in which, with the ease of an artist, he draws each of his creations and gives us, through the brand&#39;s social networks, a whole universe illuminated with few strokes.

Amid the turbulent world we live in today, <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/fashion-week/flowing-dresses-and-surrealist-jewels-in-schiaparelli-haute-couture">Roseberry</a> engages with fantasy as well as her apocalyptic vision of identity. It shows us large volumes that come out of the middle of a skirt, or skirts that sprout, like the flowers in Elsa&#39;s garden, from a model&#39;s earrings.

The new Schiaparelli woman is strong , in every sense of the word , defying the norms of the genre, she wears a dress that looks like a superhero costume and reminds us of artists who modify their physiognomy to present their performances.

Even in the smallest details appear the surreal and disturbing elements that made the Italian designer famous : a pair of small eyes look at us, like buttons, from the cuffs of a shocking pink blazer, while her models smile at us thanks to the silver and gold dentures that hang from their necks and that remind us of the haunting stories that Edgar Allan Poe wrote.

Daniel Roseberry&#39;s Haute Couture is magical ... magically disobedient, because it invites us to show ourselves boldly and luxuriously in an armor embroidered with little beads, in contrast to leisure wear that aims to turn a robe into a dress; He also asks us to dream of a world that breaks with &quot;should be&quot;, giving us images that inspire us to think of a fashion where artisanal and meticulousness become the mark we can leave on the world .

Today, as since 1935, 21 Place Vend&ocirc;me continues to be the place from which Elsa Schiaparelli and Daniel Roseberry disobey, from there they challenge all those who think that fashion is not an art, to those who believe that Alta Sewing only allows us to dream of fairy tales, and to all those who have forgotten that the evolution of fashion is intimately linked to irreverence .
