A special evening.
The IV edition of the Liguria Fashion Week 2024 in Santa Margherita Ligure coincides with the debut of Ligyes, a project born to celebrate this small corner of the world, Liguria, rich in beauty, culture, and ancient knowledge.
We envisioned it in grand style, as sponsors of an artistic event dedicated to the diva.
In the majestic setting of Villa Durazzo, we enjoyed an emotional show, accompanied by music, fashion, and the evening lights.
The runway featured three textile creations inspired by the “mezzeri” of the Rivara company, crafted through the collaboration of Marco della Casa and Elisabetta Bonissone, and hand-embroidered for the occasion.
The soundtrack for these moments was composed by Daniele Fabio, a composer and producer. It featured an unreleased version of the aria, preceded by an original theme that evokes maritime environments, dreamy atmospheres, and resonates with echoes of the Genoese “trallalero,” the traditional polyphonic song of the workers recorded in the port during the 1940s.
An olfactory accompaniment was essential to enhance the heartfelt prayer to the Moon from the priestess.
The notes of Giano, our first eau de parfum born from the mastery of Luca Maffei, transport us into the forest at night, after a day spent by the sea.
The deity chosen as the symbol of Genoa, the protector of doors, beginnings, and passages, has inaugurated our journey.
It was our first experience engaging with the public, gifting us unforgettable emotions.
‘Casta Diva,
che inargenti
queste sacre antiche piante,
a noi volgi il bel sembiante
senza nube e senza vel.
Tempra, o Diva,
tempra tu de’ cori ardenti
tempra ancor lo zelo audace,
spargi in terra quella pace
che regnar tu fai nel ciel.’
