A rigorous approach and strong shapes for the Quattromani's Fall Winter collection 2014/15, presented on 26th January 2014 in official AltaRoma AltaModa calendar. The Sardinian duo focuses on clean cuts and unexpected combinations of unusual materials, following the brand's experimental vocation. 

The strong, architectural silhouette of structured blouses and wool-blend cady dresses, becomes tapered in pants and in vinyl knee length skirt. Micro jackets and cocoon coats are made of technical woolen, while stretch fabrics characterize bustier tops, slim fit trousers and shorts with patent-leather details.

Laminated dresses, bomber jacket and overcoats come by the prestigious partnership between the designers and Alcantara, as well as sweatshirts with the original Muridae print - exclusively produced by the company - inspired by the controversial and surreal sculptures of Katharina Fritsch.

The color palette explores the shades of gray melange, the sage green and absolute black, with touches of white, geranium red, avocado yellow, founded also in leather and patent-leather bags, and in the iconic "piattina" clutch, even proposed in maxi size.

Eclectic accessories complete the collection : folder lock leather ankle pumps, created in collaboration with Trenta7 by Eleonora Moccia; cuffs and keen collars made of gold-plated brass and black ruthenium, designed for Quattromani by the jewellery designer Giuliana Mancinelli Bonafaccia; design sunglasses selected by Frank Lo from the best international eyewear.
