Feel free to share:

In the year of lockdowns and curfews, that spirit—along with an art study on Pop that included Andy Warhol, Richard Hamilton, and Marco Lodola—compelled Chiuri to create an uncharacteristically colorful collection. Outfits traversed a silver jumpsuit, graphic see-through raincoats, skimpy skirt suits in Technicolor checks, T. rex prints, and mirror-sequined party dresses. It showed a cheekier side to the designer, whose work is often characterized by exhaustive research and a commitment to using her platform for activism. In her ateliers, she said, “We decided that when this is all over, we’re each going to choose a different color dress and have a big party. That’s the dream: to dance together.”
