With our feet sunk into the warm sand and salt on our skin, we capture and preserve the luminous textures, vibrant surfaces and delicate imperfections that only summer, at its most authentic moment, can bestow. A huge rock plunges into the turquoise waters of the sea, hypnotising us with its deep shades of grey, echoed in the enveloping fabrics by Balli Il Lanificio, while the smooth buttons by Gruppo Uniesse Bottoni rest like pebbles and shells along the shoreline. Where the sand is dry and lightly marked by the wind, the light of dawn creates subtle reflections that ignite the weightless threads by ST-Milano Semplicemente Tulle. A little further on, the natural fibres by Pratofabrics by Pratofinish seem to absorb the very tones of the water and the rocks, creating a fresh, luminous contrast. On the grassy strip bordering the beach, a plant with lush, pale leaves recalls the dense and precious craftsmanship by Forza Giovane Art, while the satin and embroidery by Stoffall 2.0 evoke the dark, compact sand left behind by a passing wave, when every grain glistens with moisture. A small mound of sand and pebbles tints the fabrics by Staff Jersey with warm beige hues, while the trimmings by Toschi Passamanerie intertwine like the bark of a tree trunk dried by the summer sun, conveying a living, unrepeatable materiality. And when the dunes glow at sunset, the fabrics by Cafissi capture their chromatic vibrations, while the silks by Delta Tex light up in blues and fuchsias, reflecting the twilight glow on the rocks and once again sealing the timeless beauty of summer.
