“With our versions of Alessandro M. and Anna G. we want to take you on a Parade. A parade of beloved Alessi pieces and a parade of geometric patterns and colors. A composition focused on surface rather than form, just like in our collections. We work a lot with prints, graphic effects, and patterns that turn into special effects once sewn and transformed into a garment.” Arthur Arbesser
Arthur Arbesser's new design for Anna G. reflects his unmistakable style, which combines influences from the art and architecture of his home city of Vienna with a contemporary and modern sensibility. A fascinating change of apparel that combines the world of design with the original expressiveness of one of the most interesting, talented designers in contemporary fashion.
Note: *Body made of AlkiPaper®, a patented biocomposite based on paper, other raw materials of natural origin and functional components.
Anna G.’s smiling face has become something of a cult figure over the years, a real, bonafide, “design portrait” and tribute to a real woman. With the Colour Tales collection her unmistakable smile returns with a small series of new colour versions, a tribute to the chromatic research of the designer, Alessandro Mendini.
