Alberto Caliri made his debut as Missoni’s creative director shortly after the passing of the family matriarch, Rosita Missoni. As he prepared for the show, he couldn’t help but wonder if she would have approved of his collection. Drawing inspiration from Rosita and Ottavio, the collection stayed true to the iconic Missoni style while incorporating Caliri’s unique twist. With a focus on strong, dynamic silhouettes and a nod to Ottavio’s signature pattern mixing, Caliri’s designs exuded a sense of modernity and sophistication. The collection featured a mix of voluminous cardigans, blousons, and jackets layered over tops and paired with miniskirts or jumpers, creating a youthful and fresh aesthetic. Through a palette of muted tones and metallic accents, Caliri paid homage to Rosita’s chromatic artistry, resulting in a collection that felt both timeless and contemporary. Caliri’s belief in Missoni’s strong identity and modern nature shone through in his designs, showcasing a brand that speaks for itself without the need for excessive storytelling. As Missoni continues to evolve under Caliri’s direction, it remains a beacon of sensuality, consistency, and immediate appeal.
