The Attico Spring 2025 Ready-to-Wear
Who hasnât experienced a breakup? If you havenât, raise your hand. Chances are, such a person doesnât walk the earth. In unexpected synchronicity, Giorgia Tordini and Gilda Ambrosio both ended their relationships around the same time. Like most matters of the heart, it just happenedâand apparently it wasnât a bed of roses. Typically reserved, despite their party girl status, the duo chose to drop the veil of privacy that has surrounded their personal lives and address it openly. They expressed this through the spring show, their most personal yet, aptly titled The Sound of Breaking Glass.
Set in a vast, raw industrial space that served as a metaphor of the bruised emotions often left in the wake of a breakup, the show exuded the slouchy, undone glamour that The Attico girls have mastered so well. Hundreds of glass chandeliers hung from the ceiling, hinting at the fragility of a broken heart. Their openness in revealing emotional wounds was mirrored in the sheer chiffon and lace layers that barely concealed the body. Yet, the strength to rise above despair was captured in the seductive, shimmering pieces with a vintage flair, profusely embroidered or strategically shredded, designed to make any woman feel vibrant and beautiful once more. âBut no, this is not revenge dressing!â they declared.
As is typical with The Attico, oversized, roomy sportswear was played against the decadence of form-fitting numbers, topped off with feathered headpieces that exuded a prima donna vibe. XXL cargo pants with trailing straps were paired with sequined and lace-embellished lingerie tops; oversized, rugged parkas were layered over fringed, sequined dresses reminiscent of 1920s flappers. A broad-shouldered, cinched-waist blazer with cropped flared pants had a slightly faded look, as if time had left behind a patina of memories that slowly vanish. A broken heart would certainly mend faster and easier when dressed in one of The Atticoâs fabulous pieces.
