For the opening of the Victoria and Albert Museum exhibition dedicated to Schiaparelli – Fashion Becomes Art, I returned to a look that feels almost personal by now.
Worn once before on a beautiful evening in Paris, it carries that rare quality of a piece that doesn’t fade with time, it deepens. In the showroom setting, surrounded by the house’s surreal codes and enduring legacy, the outfit felt entirely at home: sculptural, precise, and quietly audacious.
Schiaparelli has always lived in that space between art and instinct, and this look captures exactly that. One of my favorites, not only for how it looks, but for how it stays with you.
My look: Jacquard basque jacket, and matching jacquard bustier dress, Anatomy jewelry bag, dove necklace, and large eye ring, all by Schiaparelli, and lipstick heels in satin by Christian Louboutin.
LoL, Sandra
