DROME Fall/Winter 2016-2017 Collection

2K

Welcome to the DROMe club, the club par excellence where aesthetes, new bohemians and poets of the night meet. An underground, timeless and mysterious atmosphere inhabits this scene. A dancer moves among mirrors, two artists pursue each other in the light of fluorescent lamps and, in the background, the echo of David Bowie’s songs. This is the setting in which the DROMe girls will venture during the next winter season. An aesthetic of an affirmed and contemporary elegance runs through this collection. Just like Deborah Tuberville’s photographs, oscillating between enchantment and decadence, sometimes disturbing too, Marianna Rosati, the creator of this collection, brings a different vision of the woman, letting us glimpse an intimate moment of the female world, immortalizing it forever.

Assertive and incisive, the silhouette is aerodynamic, voluminous at the top and closer to the body at the bottom. And vice versa. The focus is on outerwear pieces with extra long or extra wide sleeves, combined with ultra-light, almost impalpable garments, in a game of references where shapes are cut, opened, turned inside out, lined and evolving. Recurring elements are texture and consistency, different lengths and widths, several constructions and solutions. A hint of tribal romanticism appears here and there in the leather through an enfilade of rigid gathers, while elasticated details highlight the oversized lines of the shirt jackets and trench coats.
The sleeves of the trench coats echo the 40s with their new-style shape, becoming more feminine thanks to the pleated surfaces. Dropped shoulders and extremely long patent leather fringed sleeves characterize the new bomber. Tight collars, reminiscent of schoolgirls’ shirts, frame the face. This rigor creates a strong contrast with the palazzo or extra-wide bell-bottom pants.
A new-found sensuality, very film noir, permeates the leather swimsuits and stretch suede jumpsuits, accompanied by a hint of romanticism and a revolutionary attitude.
The assertive style of DROMe sunglasses comes in five exclusive models made of acetate and metallic leather. The practical and aerodynamic “skyfall” model with a “mask” shape reminiscent of the 80s. The “cat’s eyes” model, with its vintage ’70s look, gives the impression of two pairs of superimposed glasses, one rectangular, the other oval, attached to each other and leaving space for leather engravings and inserts.
Shoes are also required to dance the night away at the DROMe club. Two styles: the first, flat boots, in patent leather and egg yolk color with elastic bands and hooks, in a mix of patent nappa leather and stretch. The second style is a tall boot with a cylindrical heel, available in patent or metallic leather.
