Our Favorite looks from Kristina Fidelskaya SS21

You’re in the late sixties in Saint Tropez, the era’s playground and the golden-age of Godard’s New Wave Cinema - where women play the lead and leave a long-lasting impression. Kristina Fidelskaya SS21 collection entitled “Belmonde” was inspired by the charisma & magnetic persona of famed French actor Jean-Paul Belmondo, and the cinematic characters he played through the sixties and seventies -  as well as a subtle word play on "Bel Monde" borrowed from the French term “Beau Monde” – translated literally into “Beautiful World”.

The collection

This season’s collection is composed of a variety of daring and romantically untamed looks, comprised of the brand's signature intricate hand-cut leather, kaleidoscopic seventies print, delicate embroidered floral tulle, antenna cockerel feather chubbies, accentuated by modernist perplex chain belts, necklaces, and anklets – a unique combination of bespoke couture silhouettes worked into contemporary sportswear.

 

“Belmonde” looks are a love letter to monochromatic dressing, with matching ensembles paired with color coded accessories. But it is also a story of contrasts – outerwear worn with panache, dark sleek trench coats paired with bright thigh-high burnt orange boots, provoking sculpted leather bustier tops assorted to graceful tulle.

We loved the primary hues, paired with provocative sartorial flair make for an enduring summer – exuberant intrigue, intoxicating romance.

 

All this and more in our favorite picks of the collection below.
