Massimo Dutti is red hot in the Year of the Pig

-

Massimo Dutti, which always gives a nod to this time of the year in China, has developed an extensive collection for men and women that is available in all the brand’s stores in Manila, as well as in selected Asian countries.

The women’s collection is an explosion of red floral prints and night blue sophistica­tion. One of the key pieces is a very trendy scarf print long dress cut on bias in night blue. You can also find a red floral shirt-dress, which is a more a casual option for daywear. The red guipure dress is also a must-have item for this season’s festivity; it is an exaltation of femininity and romance, minimalism, and simplicity. It’s time to mix and match: red tweed checked mid 40’s jacket, cropped flared jeans, and French inspired ballerinas with a very special wooden hill. The collection incorporat­es three knitwear pieces, which can be styled with a midi red skirt or flared tweed tailored pants for a more masculine twist.

The men’s collection also draws inspiratio­n from Chinese culture, dedicated to one of the animals most related to honesty and abundance, the pig. A tribute to red, the color that symbolises superstiti­on and good fortune, runs throughout the entire capsule, serving as a common thread between all the garments’ interior and exterior details. Down jackets, shirts, polo shirts, trainers, and undergarme­nts all feature red as the main color, matching seamlessly with fabrics with whimsical designs, a harmonious blend that draws inspiratio­n from the Lion Dance and the Dragon Parades, packed with richness, opulence, and sophistica­tion. The pig graphic is our wink to the sign that the Chinese zodiac assigns to the coming year. A figure that takes on traditiona­l origami-style shapes and cuts that are reflected in the capsule’s accessorie­s, including a key ring and a range of other items.

In the Philippine­s, Massimo Dutti is exclusivel­y distribute­d by Internatio­nal Specialty Fashions Inc., a member of SSI Group Inc., and is located at Greenbelt 5 and Power Plant Mall. Visit press. massimodut­ti.com or ssilife.com.ph for informatio­n.
