Daniel Roseberry presents the spring-summer 2024 haute couture collection. A show that celebrates the figure of Elsa Schiaparelli's uncle and the fascination for planets and creatures of extraterrestrial worlds. Special guests at the show were Jennifer Lopez, Zendaya and Hunter Schafer.

SCHIAPARELLI THE SPRING SUMMER 2024 WOMEN'S HAUTE COUTURE SHOW 
Why persist in looking at the earthly world, when you could look at less well-defined universes? <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/hommes/daniel-roseberry-schiaparelli-fashion-designer-an-american-in-paris" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Daniel Roseberry</a> 's analysis for the spring summer 2024 women's haute couture show this time starts precisely from this idea. From <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/history-of-maison-schiaparelli-elsa-schiaparelli-shocking-pink-daniel-roseberry" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elsa Schiaparelli</a> 's heritage, the story of her uncle Giovanni Schiaparelli - director of the Brera Observatory in Milan - who made the discovery of a large area comparable to the Grand Canyon which interspersed the surface of Mars, is taken up. And coining the term "Martian" and imagined the extraterrestrial creatures that continue to fascinate humans today.
Elsa herself pursued her fascination with space and the planets and famously dealt with astrology: &laquo;This collection is a tribute to that obsession, as well as a study on contradictions: heritage and the avant-garde, pure beauty and provocation , the earth and the sky. But as art (and nature) always teach us, things and ideas that seem diametrically opposed to each other can also combine to create surprising chimeras" says creative director Daniel Roseberry.

The translation of this idea comes to life in the collection called &quot;Schiaparalien&quot; with a series of spring summer 2024 haute couture looks that juxtapose traditional techniques such as guipure lace and lace, velvet and lace applications, fringes with shapes, patterns with new world references ultra-technological made of microchips, calculators and electronic devices. «These clothes also connect his personal references with mine: you will see abstract references to the iconography of my home state. Texas, starting from the bandana, here remade in hand-painted sequins; the cowboy boot, reimagined as a thigh-high fantasy bristling with buckles; the iconic dressage horse braid, remade as silk satin tips to cover a camel suede bomber jacket and a white denim corset dress.” Daniel Roseberry reconfirms himself with his singular approach which, as always, is supported by personal iconography and that hint of the Maison&#39;s heritage which becomes the underlying theme of the show. A parallel between the uniqueness of haute couture which is imagined with such fascination that it seems to come from another planet.
