Bragia: Hand Dying, Silken Origami and Rock & Roll Styling

Posted by on Mar 8, 2012 in Clothing, Fashion, Italian Designers | Comments Off

Bragia (Milan) designers Alessandra Torella and Santo Costanzo say that for their Spring 2011 collection, they were most inspired by Japanese landscapes, colors and decorations. Showing origami tops, kimono-inspired wraps, and nature-inspired color gradients, the line is feminine, refined and even a bit fierce looking— a very difficult combination to pull off successfully. 

Their clothes are pretty difficult to find in the US. Fortunately, Farfetch.com, Yoox.com and Luisaviaroma.com carry a small selection of this fabulous label. 

Here are some of my favorite looks from their Spring 2011 Collection. I haven’t seen anything yet from their 2012 show, but will keep you posted.
