The Ermanno Scervino Pre-Fall 2023 collection is linear, with flawless shapes, as rigorous as a canvas where the designer paints his precious designs, operates fabrics, drapes lambskin, cuts out jersey and knitwear.

Soft oversize coats envelop thin silhouettes in leggings and mini-skirts, while masculine tailored jackets match flowing trousers that seem stolen from a man’s wardrobe due to their size.

It is not only a sophisticated style game. It is a hint at a behaviour, like the spontaneous and informal gesture of a woman slipping into her beloved apparel while easily keeping her hands in her pockets. In this season, the woman by Ermanno Scervino wears alpaca and cashmere wool, very naturally taking shelter inside a light, warm shearling coat.

Their intimate elegance and private, indiscrete fascination remind of some scenes from the movie “BUtterfield 8”, starring Elizabeth Taylor and Laurence Harvey, which inspired Ermanno Scervino to design eco-furs as soft as dressing gowns, styled according to tradition and with attention to the environment.

Under these soft, warm clothes enveloping the body, the grace and femininity of Scervino’s woman remains unchanged with mohair, alpaca, flannel and chiffon roses delicately budding on the outerwear collars and along the necklines of the dresses.
