The Milan-based womenswear designer creates collections that are at once dramatic but classic, combining fluid shapes and long, lean silhouettes with luxurious materials. Leather is so soft that it moves like silk while draped knits are so cushioned that they make you wish that we lived in a perennial winter. And Ilaria is not just a designer for the sake of it, she imbues each collection with a meaning and artistic quality that sees a story unfold through fabric. Post Milan fashion week we catch up with the reflective designer to find out why nature is continuously giving, and why Milan needs to stop living in fear.”
