A creative path through ever-changing geographic latitudes to translate the charm of visionary landscapes in timeless pieces of clothing. The “Stefania Esse” collections tell about the beauty of nature which tints the most different places, celebrating the authenticity and rareness of natural elements, symbols of endless source of life.A tale that starts from a renewed interpretation of an iconic garment: the cape. A cult in the fashion world, the main element -- along with extra large scarves and oversize kaftans -- of a limited collection made up of classic pieces, yet with a metropolitan flavour. A line where loose and embracing shapes are dominant, which doesn’t follow any season or trend, but rather creates from scratch a new, non-classifiable identity. Its fulfillment is the result of a joint effort and overlap between art and fashion, between handicraft and innovation. This synergy is really highlighted by the use of precious materials, such as cashmere and silk, enriched by “made in Italy” embroidery.

The emblem of the SS19 Stefania Esse collection is once more a symbolic element, from a sun-scorched land: the camel.Printed and embroidered, the camel conveys to the magic of the desert through its spice-scented towns. Colours light up in the intensity of the umber of soil and stones, in the beige nuances of the dunes, in the deep blue shades of the sky and in the vitality of orange and yellow spices. A warm inspiration translated in a capsule that dares to go towards a wide range of variations and garments.
