White shirt is so magical
White shirts are a common basic for many people. If you look at the white shirts designed by Italian designer Gianfranco Ferré, you won't think so.
His white shirt is only two words - amazing.
Ferré's white shirts have a lot of classical elements, and the gorgeous pleats of the pleats make the shirts many layers, sometimes mixed with exotic features. Although some styles have complex structures, they do not affect the designer's pursuit of detail.
Many stitching pleats are quite delicate, and the choice of lace is not lost.
He applied the design of the dress to the shirt, so that the shirt is no longer an internal or basic model, but has a completely independent and even gorgeous posture. This gorgeousness does not rely entirely on decoration, but more on structure and contours.
It has been found that his structure and contours are highly recognizable. This recognition is the architectural sense, which is the essence of his design.
As a veteran designer born in 1944, Gianfranco Ferré first studied architecture and received a degree in architecture from the University of Milan in 1969. Interestingly, he started his career in fashion design the following year. He was very talented and unique in style, so he developed very fast and founded his own company in 1974.
Not only in the women's design, his first men's collection was launched in 1982, and the men's wear of Gianfranco Ferré combines the elegance and freedom of traditional Italian.
Throughout the 1980s, the name of Gianfranco Ferré was so loud in the fashion circle.
In 1989, LVMH boss Bernard Arnault handed him to become the creative director of Christian Dior, succeeding Marc Bohan. Despite the birth of Dior, Dior is internationally acclaimed today, but at the time it was a bit lonely, and Gianfranco Ferré's appointment reversed Dior's decline. The first collection he designed for Dior won him the Golden Thimble Award.
In Dior's seven years, he helped the brand re-establish itself in the fashion world with an elegant appearance, although it is now easier for people to remember John Galliano's dramatic dramatic transformation of Dior, but at that time, Ferré played a big role.
His architectural design, the grasp of the simple structure and profile, is still reflected in Dior's clothing.
It is very important that his design features are destined to give the wearer a more tough temperament, and the women created by Gianfranco Ferré will always be elegant, powerful and free and easy.
In 1996, Ferré announced the end of his cooperation with Dior, after which he continued to focus on the development of his own brand, in those years, the shirt is still his iconic design category.
In 2015, the Ferry Foundation planned an exhibition about his shirt at the Phoenix Art Gallery and selected 27 shirts (1982 - 2006) that were very important in his design career. These shirts were shown in X-rays. This gives a very clear representation of the details and contours. The pictures displayed at the time were very advanced and artistic.
The master died in 2007, and he left a rich design legacy for the brand, including a highly personalized design manuscript and an iconic design.
Look at a few men's manuscripts.
After 2000, Ferré's men's wear is more modern and cool, emphasizing a tough, sunny image.
Later, in order to take care of the preferences of young consumers, the master launched a young line, GF Ferré, which adds more sense of movement and trend to the design, and looks at the release of GF Ferré at Milan Fashion Week more than a decade ago. .
Unfortunately, not long after, the master passed away.
His successors are Stefano Citron and Federico Piaggi. It is obvious that they have done a good job in continuing the brand spirit, and that the season is better than the season. If there is a bit of style at the beginning, from the spring/summer 2010 series. It was quite exciting at the beginning.
The three-dimensional feeling formed by the pleats is soft and feminine because of the use of a transparent fabric;
Interestingly, this may be the last time they showed women's soft side, and the design after that is more handsome. They enhance the silhouette and stiffness through the contrast of the fabric.
The Spring/Summer 2013 collection has won a lot of attention, especially the opening of the asymmetric dress, the simple and atmospheric design is quite popular.
The design of this show is more concise, emphasizing the straight lines, but in the details of the processing is not sloppy, with a classic sense of flowers and belts, the lines of multiple lines have increased the point of view.
The brand's 2013 autumn and winter collections are equally outstanding. The most representative designs are selected. One is a shirt with a coat and a suit that disassembles the structure. It continues the sense of architecture but is more modern.
From these outstanding designs, the brand still has great potential, but it is somewhat understated. After all, Ferré himself is a master who doesn't care too much about the trend. As a designer who does not have a driver's license and walks through the city with a private jet, he creates trends. It is precisely because of this that he can pass on the iconic design.
In the early years, a Chinese businessman who loved the design of Gianfranco Ferré brought the two brands, Ferré and GF Ferré, to the domestic market.
The earlier Gianfranco Ferré men's wear will be more elegant, and now the men's wear is more fashionable, and in order to pay tribute to the founder, in the latest season's products, a large number of lion prints, because Mr. Ferré is Leo.
The image of the lion appears in black and white pens, while others appear as embroidered, both classical and modern.
Before the death of Mr. Ferré, in order to bring more designs suitable for young people, GF Ferré was launched. Today's GF appears in a tough trend, and the printing is very diverse.
Of course, GF Ferré uses Leo prints in different ways, as well as some of the previous classic silhouettes.
After all, Ferré, a master who can be involved in the history of fashion, will always be the treasure of the brand.
