Fashion brand DURAZZI MILANO presented its Fall Winter 2023 Collection, that celebrates female empowerment, on February 25th, during the recently finished Milan Fashion Week. The brand offers a woman’s view on reality, and makes today’s women a mirror for those of tomorrow. The collection features equestrian references, and it fuses tradition with top-level craftsmanship. The collection was also inspired by the canons of Italian modernist architecture. The presentation, that took place in in the rooms of the Casa Corbellini-Wassermann designed by Piero Portaluppi, was a tribute to the opera Some Living American Women Artists by Mary Beth Edelson (Chicago 1933-2021), in which the artist reworks Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper, by replacing the faces of the disciplines with female artists of her time.
FALL WINTER 2023.24 WOMENSWEAR COLLECTIONS


“In the creations of the Autumn Winter 2023 Collection, there are metamorphoses and hybridisations that tell the story of ancient passions and the desire for an alternative to the clamour of modern life, we find that symbiotic relationship with the horse that drives the creation of clothes and accessories, borrowing textiles and shapes from the equestrian world, such as the brand logo, inspired by bridles. The saddle dress, the riding boots and the bags shaped like saddle bags mix tradition and top-level craftsmanship in the choice of materials such as paint, felt, embroidery, the product of the best Italian design tradition. The clothes keep their well-tried shapes, the same silhouettes with decisive lines that rework tailoring and the concept of uniforms, eschewing gender or definition; but if modularity, repetition and minimalist rigour are identifying traits of the brand, then so too is the unexpected, the direction that strays from the path: and this is why exquisite craftsmanship is interspersed with graphic elements, the wild and surrealist fur element, television adverts in colour and motifs that are hand painted on blankets for horses. They also feature on the clothes, creating an interrupted story between humans and animal pride.” – from Durazzi Milano
