Trell, AW 77/78, "Madonne"

In March 1977 he presented the Trell collection for AW 1977-78,
which caused a scandal because of its Madonna prints.
The garments were given names of famous composers and painters,
the models wore Venetian masks.

Walter, what does the Madonna look like to you?
She is seated on a lily pad, glorified by elephants,
dazzling in colours and jewellery.

 

Walter Albini
