The British designer continues to expose her exploration of the complexity of adolescence and female coming of age.
The fifth chapter in her series of collections, entitled ‘Somewhere, Nowhere’, reflects on alienation, desolation and unattainable femininity, influenced by Nouvelle Vague cinema and the portraits of enigmatic and moving women such as Gena Rowlands, Barbara Loden and Monica Vitti.
The collection, charged with nostalgia, transports us into the life of an anti-heroine trapped in a domestic routine, and enveloped in a gentle but powerful melancholy. A fragmented figure who lives between pain and beauty, facing the challenge of existing in an emotionally distant, but at the same time enveloping universe. Lucila Safdie‘s protagonist does not seek to be understood, but to accept herself in her inner contradiction: is she too much or simply not enough?
The result is classic tailoring and exquisite loungewear, with sumptuous fabrics and lace trimmings intertwined with the freshness of mini shorts, pleated skirts and baby-doll dresses. These wardrobe elements break away from the traditional and enter a territory of aesthetic tension, where the elegance of leather gloves and thigh-high socks are contrasted with the childlike sweetness of knitted ensembles and the elegance of fur shawls.
