The fall-winter collection for 2010/2011 by Enrico Coveri is Las Vegas inspired also in the setting: the fashion show is transformed in a perfect Broadway style, with a golden catwalk, with a sparkling neon sign and red carpet cordons. Dr Feelx of Chiambretti Night [Italian TV Show] , accompanied by two male dancers presented the collection.
The sparkling world of the city of game by excellence gives room to a cabaret-fashion show, where the main role is played by color, and where fiches, poker cards, roulette's numbers and dices, leave the casinos to be hang on bracelets or to be printed either on dresses or jeans as the best glam-couture suggests.
Colorfully, funny and exaggerated, exuberant fantasy of the prints, research of new volumes, paillettes and fluorescent embroidery: Francesco Martini Coveri remains faithful to the maison's DNA, without giving up in revisiting his own heritage because, as it happens in Las Vegas, who doesn't bet, does not win!
The traditional multicolor patchwork is forged in new prints: the “Coveri Game” - inspired to the night club's world in which the Lights of Las Vegas intersect with the game tables, or to the vertical architectures and to the neon signs of the clubs – comes out upon the various materials, from jersey to ram, from satin to chiffon, from denim to hand made knitwear. This is to let us remember that even in the age of the digital system there is “Mosaic”, the print that unveils, but without defining it, a new floral design played in a typical chromatic scale recalling autumn. And it's still flowers inspiring the more discrete “Floral Liberty”, a kind of print that looks back in time in its old pink and gray, perfect couple composing the softer side of the collection; the same side collecting those clothes which are the result of specific researches, to make the difference. Because style, even when it becomes funny and ironical, cannot avoid the sartorial rules.
The collection is enriched with hyper-feminine proposals, with unexpected voluminous dresses, so important and decided in their particulars. The main focus is in fact on the jacket's and coats' shoulders on which decorations alternates one to each other reaching the couture, turning into architectonic solutions rendered in solid volutes or in domed elaboration. Bon ton details, like folded tissues and silk tied ribbons or swarovski, that enrich dresses and skirts, in a great variety of length from the very short to the proposals for the night: long dresses in polished satin or chiffon. So many fur coats: to the knee in pop colors, or in the minimal version – even more funny and modern – of shoulder-cover.
Accessories are not missing: they are thought to complete the look of a sexy and determined woman that walks on the catwalk with the hair tied in sophisticated chignons: very high heels, day bags – in patent leather, suede and down – or night bags, like the rigid pochettes made in satin, tiny belts bearing a little mark. But also bracelets, colliers, badges and gloves recalling ironically the moods of the season: dies, fiches and numbers. Hazard playing is not dangerous, if you do it with fashion!
