All the glamour of 1950’s Italian cinema infuses creative director Alessandro
Dell’Acqua’s design approach in his luxury label No. 21. P
air that with American sportswear for a fresh, fashion-savvy
aesthetic in the latest collection for Pre Fall ’17.

Strong references get fully integrated in rich textiles and innovative silhouettes,
like oversized mohair suiting, duchesse satin bombers with floral appliques,
menswear poplin shirting and fitted, flirty dresses.
Ostrich feathers lend extravagance and eccentricity to the lineup, adorning an
elongated tuxedo jacket and sporty, shapely skirts.

There’s a festive-yet-utilitarian overtone
to the overall idea of No. 21’s Pre Fall
collective that’s in line with Italian style
theory and at home in the modern socialite’s wardrobe.
