SPRING SUMMER 2009 Ennio Capasa, designer
'I designed a techno rock collection made of hyper technological fabrics, ethereal and transparent they make the silhouette visible showing the movements and joints of the body through the garments. The see through effects and overlapping of layers in black, white and grey reveal the structure, the construction of every piece – but not the naked body – as through x ray specs'.
