Inspiration
Provocative appropriation of unisex silhouette was an important inspiration to this modern and elegant design. Its straight clean lines echo with minimalism, pairing with exaggerated big V-neck band, it’s my intention to subvert the gender stereotypes that confine our societies for many centuries.

A sculptural-inspired neckband forms another indispensable element of Fluffísimo, it stands up and frames the neckline in a subtile way, giving a sophisticated appearance, portraying a soft and gentle image that evokes a sense of comfort in our heart. Depending on how you wear it, the shape of the neckband can highlight the shape of the neck or frame your shoulders and collar bone, giving it a sensual yet sophisticated vibe while moving around comfortably.
