#28
the rocks
mosses
and lichens
is inspired by those mosses and lichens, which find their vital space into the dry skins of the rocks. The association between these organisms is translated into a versatile collection with a sculptural and plastic impact, given by an unusual approach towards knitwear techniques, sometimes treated as a weave, or by the relation of threads of different nature – from cotton to wild silk, to metals – that transform the garments into sensible and malleable surfaces.
The dress has a leading role, which evolves toward the diverse themes of the collection. The tidy line of the Basic gain strength in its double and irregular borders, while the Sweater one is distinguished by its reinforced refinements that give volume to the sleeves and bottoms. As the name suggests, the Apron has a more playful and light character. The shadows of imaginary stones appear and gravitate on the Rock, thanks to a sophisticate linen inlay that breaks the smooth drop of the cotton.
Throughout a colour palette that spans from cream to black, with touches of underwood green and cloud, Boboutic #28 is a collection that reflects the shimmering nature of the seasons, the unexpected event generated by a magnetic juxtaposition.

Once I found a piece of meteor on my way back home. When I touched it, I could still feel the weight of its fall, and the temperature of the space was still running on its surface, like a wave. I lifted it up, until its shadow hid me from the sunlight.
