The show takes place in the picturesque<strong> Bardini Museum<\/strong>, close to the walls full of paintings, which not only serve as a frame for the dresses presented, but also become part of them, so much that the collection took profound inspiration from this context. The designer, with his florentine origins, sends<strong> barefoot men<\/strong> on the catwalk, inspired by the many Florence&#8217;s souls, such as handicrafts, romance or traditional costume football. To be protagonist is in fact,<strong> a warrior with a romantic soul<\/strong>, that incarnates perfectly the essence of the city. The <strong>trenches<\/strong> are made of silk and the <strong>tailoring looks very relaxed<\/strong> and reinterpreted with respect to the formal dress. The <strong>color palette<\/strong> also took inspiration from the city and seems to be almost a postcard of<strong> Ponte Vecchio<\/strong>, thus highlighting the casualty and excitement of the designer.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.waitfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen-Shot-2017-06-19-at-8.42.22-pm.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-49619\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2017-06-19 at 8.42.22 pm\" src=\"http:\/\/www.waitfashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen-Shot-2017-06-19-at-8.42.22-pm.png\" width=\"2132\" height=\"1248\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>photo courtesy: iodonna, nssmagazine, 10magazine, fashionably male<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pitti Uomo 92, in the fantastic scenario of the city of Florence, has offered some brilliant shows, which opened the menswear season for the next ss18.
