Calcaterra SS24 / Spring Summer 2024 at Milan Fashion Week

Calcaterra Spring Summer 2024 collection represents the essence of the brand according to its designer and founder.

Simplicity in form and a sophisticated and light interpretation of color come together, skillfully combined by the designer who respectfully reinterprets and reworks archive designs while preserving their purity, quality, and timeless allure.

Calcaterra SS24, the palette is powdery: botanical greens from hydrangea to fern, crystalline and milky shades of white, delicious hues of dark chocolate, nutmeg, and black pepper, and the unusual nuance of strelitzia.

A Berber mood emerges through a choreography of subtle and strong accents.

Calcaterra SS24, the material and the volume are the stylistic feature of the entire collection: hand embroidery done with natural river pearls, washed feathers, transparencies and jacquards on which the very concept of the jacket is exaggerated to the extreme, which becomes an object of desire.

A minimalist attitude increasingly focuses on the essential and — borrowing codes of the ‘80s and ‘90s — stylistically reiterates a “less is more” approach, made up of dramatically large squared shoulders, simple necklines, and exaggeratedly short jackets almost to the limit of wearability.

Simplicity speaks the language of childhood:

“I wanted to design this collection with the eyes of when I first fell in love with fashion. With my hands and pencil, I traced a new linearity and stylistic imprint, created as if from a child’s quick sketch.”
