Maxi or mini dresses are festive with sequins, jeweled embroidery and metallized mesh to shine in the evening and beyond.

Glitter. Glitter. Glitter. Sequins make the look, be it an accessory, a mini dress, a blazer or very high loafer shoes. Opalescent and in all variations: micro, macro, gold, black, silver or multicolor, round or irregularly shaped, the main thing is that they shine. Designers love sequins. We saw a lot of sequins this year at Gucci (Sabato De Sarno), at Prada (Miuccia and Raf Simons) and even in the midi skirts of N&deg;21, Proenza Schouler and Dries Van Noten. In the 80s, Enrico Coveri was one of the first to cover his clothes with sequins. In the same years, Gianni Versace released a mini dress with his iconic metallic mesh. It's impossible not to mention Paco Rabanne. His "link dresses" appeared on the catwalk in 1966. Real jeweled dresses made of very light steel. Over the years, the metallic mesh evolved, changing shapes, colors and textures, but remained an iconic symbol of the brand. After more than 50 years, metallized mesh, sequins and appliques remain a great choice for holiday parties, and beyond. They can also be worn during the day, accentuating contrasting fabrics, clothing and shoes.
