Taken for the Italian designer Beatrice Salvatori for her Fall/Winter collection 2014

“We live in a world in which our identity is constantly being questioned. Clothing, however, communicates our place and does so without filters. This in the aspect of fashion that has inspired Beatrice Salvatori for her F/W womenswear collection “Unknown People”. In particular, the women of the Montehermoso community in Spain, showing how a simple accessory or hat, can “say” much about their social status. The hat is the accessory that plays the leading role of all the outfits. Coats, jackets and voluminous skirts are in contrast with shirts and trousers that cling to the body. To integrate the research she also tooks inspiration from 1920s fashion throgh the lens of police mughshots. Beatrice chose their photographic identity thus seems constructed out of a potent alchemy of inborn disposition,personal history, chosen personal style and physical characteristics to create a strong impact for printed fabrics The fabrics, for the most part technical, also reach the shoes, creating innovative looks in a mix of elegance and practicality”.
