Calcaterra FW24 at Milan Fashion Week

Calcaterra FW24 / Fall Winter 2024 – 2025 at Milan Fashion Week entitled “Matèria”

matèria (ant. matèra) s. f. [dal lat. materia].

La sostanza di cui sono fatti gli oggetti sensibili, concepita come esistente in sé, provvista di peso e di inerzia, estesa nello spazio e capace di assumere una forma. [Treccani]

Matter takes creative form through the thought that outlines the features of the Calcaterra Fall Winter 2024 – 2025 collection. It is the search for Matter, in the purest and most visceral sense, that guides the entire collection, describes its stylistic trait and distinguishes the evolution of Daniele Calcaterra: always moving, season after season, into the boundless territory of research.

Substance and transformation, contemporary vision and interpretation of the volume for a stylistic reading both conceptual and lasting.

Details Calcaterra FW24, Precious wools, cottons, Shetland, silk, alpaca and upcycled fur. The matter is worked and transforms, in contrast, between geometric lines, almost artificial, and stylistic features stolen from nature, like the two flowers that come across the whole collection: the pure lily and the peony.

The colour choice underlines the material connection with the everyday world: milky white, ash gray, peat, saffron, date brown, burgundy. An autumnal bouquet made of bark, spices, fruits and flowers, in an evening shadow that softens the colours and drapes the shades for Calcaterra FW24.

« The volume not to cover her, but to protect her, The heat not to warm her, but to make her feel comfortable, The search for the line not to make her different, but to make her unique, Irony not to make her a paradox, but to make her feel alive. »

A woman among many different ones, a woman who wants to exist, today and tomorrow, always managing to recognise herself.
