Last year when we were designing the AW20/21 collection, Venice was our inspiration and at the same time, we also met a wonderful young lady whose work, primarily designs on silk, we just knew would work perfectly as a range of accessories to complement the jewelled colours and richness of fabrics that we were working with.
“We give a free hand when it comes to designing the collections for Gagliardi, and then the team convenes to share opinions and to whittle the samples down to the pieces that will be manufactured by our team in Tunisia. One of the best parts of the job is seeing how different team members hone in on details that help define that season.
We met with Saz Mifsud, the young designer in question, and we discussed the theme, and she came up with a series of prints based on the ubiquitous Venetian mask ….. we used samples of the fabrics chosen for the upcoming suiting and evening wear and chose a stunning teal, a moody airforce blue and also a vibrant burned orange background for pocket squares, tubular scarves and foularini, each which can be worn with day and evening wear”, said Sam Borg, COO of the group.
