Maki cappelli e cerchiettiSCENARIO

E’ il viaggio della manualità su rive opposte del mondo, Londra, Parigi, New York, alla continua scoperta di mercatini dell’antiquariato, piccoli mondi artigiani che ispirano la reinterpretazione di tessuti, charms, bottoni, rosari, fermagli.
Viaggio che prosegue nell’entroterra dei piccoli paesi della Sardegna, dove si conservano preziosi manufatti e stoffe dell’abito tradizionale sardo.

Elementi che, disorganizzati, si trasformano in originali cerchietti, cappelli e velette dalla filosofia retrò. L’unicità delle realizzazioni, che hanno un’allure aristocratico ispirato agli anni ’50, è data anche dalla personalizzazione dei pezzi, che tra cinema, fotografia e vita vissuta, regalano fiabe reali a chi le indossa.
Linea Chapeaux: Omaggio al cappello come accessorio principe della moda femminile, guarda al passato per tecnica e rivestitura con stoffe pregiate, e si caratterizza dalla costante e raffinata ricercatezza di tocchi d’annata, anche nei dettagli. Spille anni ’20, passamanerie, nastri, scatoline variopinte e grandi fiocchi su colori decisi, fanno da copricapo alle donne moderne che non dimenticano la lezione di stile delle dames ottocentesche dei grandi salotti francesi.

Linea Petals: Cerchietti romantici da occasione, perfetti anche per vezzose giornate della quotidianità, i Petals nascono rielaborando foulards, camice, gonne e stoffe vintage provenienti anche da famosi capi di case d’alta moda, in cui il sapore d’altri tempi torna a dettare gusto.

Vintage fabrics, retro charms, classic buttons, antique beads and all sorts of forgotten beauty, once left by the wayside, now remembered, transformed into original headbands, hats, and veils. The flavour is old-fashioned, the final product, modern, chic and positively inimitable. Each piece carries with it a special character, inspired by the days of yesteryear – the interpretation of classic cinema, ground-breaking photography, the genius of art, the beauty found in real life. Maki is a journey of craftsmanship around the world; London, the inspiration; Paris, the mother of style; New York, the treasure chest of markets, workshops and the constant evolution of fashion. Fabrics were “stolen” from antique markets in great European cities and in intriguing foreign lands, as well as in the small villages of inland Sardinia, Maki’s original birthplace:
here, precious handmade artifacts and fabrics of the traditional Sardinian dress are preserved. The woman who wears Maki makes her own history, creates her own vintage, wears her own fable. She is the mark of her appreciation for the whimsical beauty and timeless fashion of days gone by.

Chapeaux and Petals: Chapeaux line looks at the past for technique and lining, and is assembled with rich fabrics; it is characterized by a constant refined search for retrò touches, even in their finest details. Twenties’-flavoured broaches, passementerie, ribbons, gaily-coloured boxes and big bows set on decisive colours, are what constitute the head-dresses for modern women who do not wish to forget the lessons in style of the 19th-century ladies in their extensive French parlours…Hats are thus manufactured with a close peering into the practice of the typical ancient régime couturier: entirely tailor-made, they are created in a semicircular shape which serves as the hat’s framework.
Petals stem from re-elaborated foulards, blouses, skirts and vintage fabrics originating even from famous high-fashion clothing items, from which a flavour of yesteryear returns to dictate a new taste. Petals are elegant and romantic head-bands, conceived to add charm to our daily life .
