The Delta del Po is an empty space, overlooked by water and nature. Po River runs for thousands miles through all the north of Italy, to finish - exhausted - in the area between Emilia and Veneto, in a valley carved by fluvial erosion just before the Adriatic Sea. The area became a National Park to protect the local flora and fauna, later included in the Unesco World Heritage list in 1988.
The Delta landscape is quiet, rarefy, aquatic. The population, here very sparse, got used to the rhythm of the nature that shaped the surroundings the dawns and the dusks here shown theirs true, magical, nuances.
The soft vibes of the pictures encapsulate these sensations, and the delicate palette of the environs. The styling plays with huge volumes made by layers and layers of garments from Slam Jam range. Mostly elegant and sometimes edgy, the combinations feature pieces from JW Anderson, 1017 ALYX 9SM, OAMC, Craig Green, Y-3, Kappa, Suicoke and other Summer 2017 collections.
