Alessandro Enriquez’s Spring-Summer 2021 collection is a tribute to Italy, love and the genuine art of the Italian food.” A cheeky hymn to Italy, an Italy that is recovering and transforming itself, starting from Milan, ready to shine again thanks to the most powerful tool it has: love “.

Cooking and love go hand in hand and fly from one fabric to another, from one dress to one skirt to build, through the hands of the designer. This is a collection that symbolizes a restart … “setting up” the fashion for a SS21 under the banner of the Italian flag.

The garments are transformed into “canvases”, on which the designer notes ingredients, ideas, reflections, sketching out shapes and designs and new ideas. These are new elements, the fulcrum of the summer collection that develops through pop and irreverent, “Enriquezian”.

The print with the Sicilian tangerines is vitamin explosion, a tribute to our Mediterranean nature, as powerful as the aroma that these fruits give off .
From citrus fruits to the queen of the Italian cuisine, the pizza, which is represented here with quick brushstrokes, white, red and green, of course.

The “laid table” cannot be missing, which Alessandro imagines as a black and white checked tablecloth, set with plates of spaghetti, traditional Italian ingredients and good red wine to toast a new rebirth.

The part of the collection dedicated to Italy is a tribute to the Italian flag, where the flag print becomes a lined sheet on which to write short declarations of love for our country.

Sicily, Alessandro’s homeland and crossroads of different traditions and cultures, inspires the market press, recalling Renato Guttuso’s “La Vucciria” where the chaos of the crowd is combined with the wonderful colors of the fruit and vegetable counters. This time in a strictly vegan version.

Finally, the series dedicated to love, a recurring theme in all Alessandro’s collections, and represented by the symbol par excellence of this feeling: the heart. A heart that is transformed, and which is depicted with a crown, a halo, and again in a new “doubled” version of the “double heart” squared in different colors. Hearts that then fly in the clear skies together with giant balloon-tomatoes between messages of hope and joy. This “sky” print is available in two variants, blue and lilac.

The denim package continues to be a distinctive trait of Alessandro’s style, together with the t- shirts depicting faces, “Italian-style” rebus and postcards created together with Fabrizio Sclavi, a modern storyteller who tells places and visions with his words and its colors.

Dresses with full skirts and soft trousers are combined with more constructed models, such as shirts with pockets with a vintage 90s fit.

Cotton, viscose and silk which take on softer or more rigid textures on the bases of poplin, twill, duchesse and crepe are the bases of this collection.

Finally, a proposal of accessories, created in collaboration with the brand Leontine Vintage who created with Alessandro a capsule of mini bags in woven straw in the shape of pineapple, heart and small pig, as well as the inevitable headbands, hats and hair bows. with a 50s flavor, held together by the prints of the collection through woven bandanas, knots and ribbons.
