Schiaparelli’s Spring 2023 haute couture show at Paris Fashion Week this time has attracted a lot of attention, because Shalom Harlow, Irina Shayk, Naomi Campbell and other supermodels appeared on the runway with obvious fake snow leopard, lion and wolf heads, although Schiaparelli have been quick to publicize that no animals were harmed in the creation of these shapes, but they still attract mixed reviews.
Creative director Daniel Roseberry mentioned that this series was inspired by Dante Alighieri’s epic poem “The Divine Comedy” written in the 14th century, which is mainly divided into chapters such as Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradiso, and quoted Daniel Roseberry the animal symbolism in Inferno, integrating leopards, lions and wolves representing desire, pride and greed in the costumes.
In the end, the craftsmanship of Daniel Roseberry is evident. These animal heads are made by hand and highly sophisticated technology, but the voice against animal cruelty and the sale of fur has never disappeared. How will Daniel Roseberry use’ r this wave of debate to convey his ideas? is definitely a double-edged sword, and interested readers may wish to continue to pay attention.
