It was on a trip to Peru last year that the stylist Sandro Barros sought his inspiration to create 'Pisco Sour Pisco Chic', the new collection of Atelier Sandro Barros. A warm, joyful, latin-filled winter in transparent corselet dresses with fluttering skirts, buzzing sleeves and ethnic prints in the patterns of the famous ponchos.
"At the same time, I thought of the deep religiosity of the Peruvian people, in their processions and in the basilicas - austere on the outside and dazzling inside," says the designer, who also bets on more closed party dresses with cloaks and a high collar, dresses black lace and overalls that come with pleated shirts at the top.
The shapes overlap embroidery, with cocktail dresses in medium length, silk crepe instead of sable and dresses with cut at the waist with skirts that open. "The sleeves, fluttering or bulky, and the ruffles are the absolute protagonists of this collection," summarizes Sandro, who plunged into a range of colors ranging from snow white to azalea, through silver, gray and blue jeans.
Among the novelties are cotton T-shirts with printed Cuzco paintings depicting Our Lady with embroidered frames - a re-reading of her successful collection of T-shirts 'Secret Queens'. "In Latin American culture, the great queen is Our Lady", points out the stylist. "The relationship of the people with religion is always festive; the events of faith always end with a great feast on the streets and in the houses. "
Sandro also introduces the leather in his collection, in the form of fringed jackets, skirts and megaponchos, with braided details and gold studs. The florals appear "bursting", maximized on dramatic dark background in silk dresses, as brushed on a canvas.
The photos of the collection are by photographer Peu Campos and the campaign was based on the antiquarian Jorge Elias, Izabel Esteves, Silvia Furmanovich, Rodrigo Massot and Daniela Norinder, Sabrina hats, Lupo socks and René Caovilla shoes, Schutz, Capodarte and Dumond . The beauty of the campaign was made by Saulo Fonseca and the lookbook Julio Elibio.
