Lucio Vanotti: national and purista approach , for fashion only manifests its most beautiful, thin, truthful to be . No frills or whimsicalities On the contrary, practical functionality. "Less is more" professed Ludwig Mies van der Rohe; “before leaving the house, a lady should look in the mirror and remove one accessory” kept repeating Chanel. It really seems that Lucio Vanotti follow word by these already proved and historical thought, making it their own, adapting it to her more personal conception of creativity.
In a time when everything seems never enough, where the globality of the most has outstripped the importance and the care of less, the philosophy that permeates the aesthetic of Lucio Vanotti makes us reflect.

Many of the important stages of already so studded career: from the independent project in 2002 February to push towards his eponymous label, both menswear womenswear, entirely Made in Italy; from selection as a finalist of Who Is On Next? MAN in 2012 to the victory of White Prize Inside Award 2013. Until arriving to the remarkable fashion show in the house of King Giorgio Armani, where parades with his label in the Armani theater, temple of fashion.
For the Autumn - Winter 2016-17, the vision of Lucio Vanotti continues to focus on clean lines. Even for the woman is imposed an oversized geometry, angular in the outerwear, but blunt in the fluidity of jersey or satin maxi captivating capes. It is the rigor of military uniform the start from where the inspiration for these tailored garments, textile shields of bodies here covered with midi and maxi lengths. Strict pinstripes are combined with robust cotton shirts. The fairer sex becomes a thief, by stealing from the wardrobe man, disguising himself with a typically masculine austerity.
Interchangeable winning silhouette in simple formality, pieces to be structured freely, building each day. The shirt seems to take his revenge in a brilliant white graphic construction, gray, black. Dressing gown coats as protection, enveloping cocoon: essential uniform but extremely careful, detailed tailoring. Lucio Vanotti: from the dress to the essence, from the shell to the core. To get naked dressing. Wearing only purity, simplicity. For info luciovanotti.com
