For
Max Mara's SS21 collection, Ian Griffiths turned to the masters – no, not the scissor-wielding greats of couture, but the pantheon of legendary painters that captured the Renaissance in oil and tempera: Raphael, Bellini, Caravaggio, Titian. Naturally, their influence crept its way into the clothes, too. With its silk puffed sleeves, the
Affetto dress has shades of the 16th century, though we'd keep it paint-free and style with classic heels.
