Tommaso Aquilano and Roberto Rimondi ( Aquilano Rimondi ) love nothing fairly a lot as an obscure reference. This season it was Henri Matisse’s Chapelle du Rosaire de Vence within the South of France, identified for its colourful stained-glass home windows and its elemental black and white murals. “I need these getting into my chapel to really feel themselves purified and lightened of their burdens,” Matisse as soon as mentioned. A tall order for a church, not to mention a style present. But we will perceive the intuition.
A yr in the past, Aquilano and Rimondi based mostly a set across the work of Paul Gauguin. It was fabulous, colourful, daring, and somewhat bit dangerous. Unfortunately, this present did not obtain the punch of that one. Blame the layers. In an obvious try and evoke the chapel’s gentle-stuffed house, the designers added sheer overlays of organza and chiffon, typically embroidered with flowers, to lots of the seems. More typically than not, the apron-like appendages wound up weighing issues down relatively than elevating them up. Big dragonfly appliqués had been likewise extra ponderous than inspiriting. The designers had been higher off after they lifted blocky prints immediately from Matisse’s canvases. A leafy pink and inexperienced print used for a pleated silk costume was a beacon in a set that in any other case felt a bit murky.
