Inspired by the late designer’s practise of revisiting his collection archives while also nodding to the Tati exhibition currently on show,
Azzedine Alaïa is keeping one eye on the past this season. Perhaps referencing the label’s 1980s beginnings, this midi dress is cut with a retro, tiered skirt, falling from a nipped-in waist. Though woven with a Western influence, the number could also be linked to traditional Cheongsam dresses with it’s key-hole, angled neckline.
