Unifying the collection is Schiaparelli’s longstanding connection to art and artists—an ongoing dialogue that has enriched and inspired the Maison throughout its history. Each piece draws inspiration from an artist, be it from Elsa Schiaparelli’s era, the mid-century, or contemporary times. For instance, the body of a woman was hand-painted with brushwork reminiscent of Lucian Freud’s style, and that image was then transferred onto a stretch silk body stocking adorned with shimmering paillettes, each stroke a testament to Freud’s influence.
