DES PHEMMES: the contemporary effortless

DES PHEMMES sees the light in 2019 from a project by Salvo Rizza, designer born in 1989, former coordinator of the style office for Pret-à-Porter and Haute Couture of Giambattista Valli. Thus, a brand in “unbalanced balance” is born, a continuous tension, a game between opposite inspirations, between proportions and volumes, textures and colors that promote “an aesthetic out of time”, which deconstructs the stereotypes of femininity.

Even the search for fabrics and materials moves in the direction of a measured excess, with garments decorated with extra large sequins, beads and gems that create plays of light and reflections that counterbalance the perforated fabrics, mesh skirts and tie-dye prints.

Everything in the LoveMore_MoreLove collection by DES PHEMMES screams contrast, softened by sorbet colors, super soft and cuts reminiscent of the 90s, the rigor of sangallo lace and the draped softness of tulle. 

The item we liked the most? The tie-dye shirt encrusted with silver beads, a little oversized grunge, a little Indian sari, to wear a little bit in the city, a little bit on vacation, in the office and as a cover-up, open or laced up to the last button, but always in style!
