Italy continues to fascinate Silvia Tcherassi, whose spring collection was a continuation of her resort effort, both rooted in cinematic references drawn from director Paolo Sorrentino’s depiction of the country’s sweeping views, architectural grandeur and Dolce Vita glamour.
The Colombian designer, who usually unveils her collection in New York, decamped this season to Madrid Fashion Week as a special guest — alongside fellow New Yorker Carolina Herrera.

She later stopped in Milan, where her regal caftans, cutout dresses and draped concotions displayed in a showroom space hanging on racks telegraphed the uber sophisticated ease core to the brand’s DNA.
Tcherassi’s jet-setting clientele will have plenty of options to pack for next year’s Euro-summer.
An alluring seafoam-like motif done in ultramarine blue decked bishop-sleeved frocks with plunging V-necks and halterneck tops for boat deck dinners, while degradé dresses, fashioned as if a bathing suit was paired with a wraparound sarong held in place by a shell-shaped brooch, read morning commute to the beach. Spiral and nature-derived shapes informed the ruched and bias cut numbers, including a refined jumpsuit knotted around the navel.
More fancy beach club-appropriate garb included strapless top and flowing skirt ensembles in color gradients reminding deep sunset hues over, say, Capri or Taormina, and one-shouldered caftans in chocolate brown and acid green tie-dye.
In further exploring Italian tropes — and drawing upon her background as an interior designer —Tcherassi had arty midi-frocks in mismatched stripes, including a mock-neck number with a cutout shoulder, which was the collection’s winner and great first-day-back-at-the-office attire.
