ELSA SCHIAPARELLI (1890 ~ 1973)I couldn't see where her uniqueness came from when I look at Schiaparelli's childhood. She belonged to a well-established family and was well educated. She was born in 1890, Rome, Italy. He had many talents. In my mind his studio philosophy didn't have much connection to art and fashion with his later shocking projects. Even for me who have seen many things in today's life, his plans were shocking and a little crazy. I could imagine how shocking it would be to people at the time. Because most of the models are feminine and focus more on looking good or being elegant. As I said before, his designs are very far from Chanel and Poiret, but somehow similar. First of all, I don't know where he got these ideas from. She uses a lot of images that don't seem to fit the clothes but somehow I don't see it as a strange and unattractive looking dress but as a well blended dress with elegance and classic look. It is the shapes and colors that make the dress united and attractive. The influences of Cubism and Surrealism are also why its design is unique. The artists who worked with her contributed to the design and colors. He worked with Dali, Beroatd and Cocteau to design fabrics and accessories. Some of the designs we thought were weird and crazy are the insect necklaces, the ice cream cone hat, and the cutlet hat. I wonder how people dressed with these accessories. Even though its design is unique, I would certainly never wear that bug necklace. It's disturbing to think that bugs are clinging to my neck. He also had an eye for seeing the object in other perspectives. For example, in 1935, he designed a zipper, which he dyed the same color as his fabrics and placed it in exposed places. Another invention was his shocking pink.
