Nineteenth century author Guy de Maupassant was almost as well known for his constant travels (which boosted his creativity) as he was for his literary output. “Travel is a door that opens from the real world into a world that is yet to be discovered and seems like a dream,” he said.
That idea was the inspiration for the Ermanno Scervino 2024 resort collection. The designer has had many exchanges with cultures near and far, experimenting with what is closest to his heart: textile research and artisanal techniques. The Marocain—a coarse grain crêpe, often a main feature of Scervino’s collections—was printed here in a denim effect on tops, trousers, skirts and coats, ever so light.
The python print was a standout—blue, green, ivory—airbrushed on lace pieces and digitally printed on recycled fabrics. The same exotic tones were found on bags, mini and maxi, often worn in pairs. The classic pieces of the brand’s wardrobe go perfectly with the idea of the traveling muse: blazer-suits, bandeau corsets and longuette skirts, and Nappa leather jackets with laser cut details all looked ready for adventure.
