For the constant creator, surroundings provide inexhaustible inspiration, and two years later, Silvia’s entire Spring-Summer 2022 collection was conceived and developed in this locale, drawing on some of the remarkable elements of the building as well as others of the architect’s authorship. The outcome is a thoroughly modern one with the presence of classical components similar to those of the MiMo (Miami Modernism) movement, where stylistic conventions, chronologies, or geographies are expertly blended—not at all different to Tcherassi’s own creative tendencies. Cut-outs and exposed shoulders evoke Lapidus’ explorations with circular shapes and stand out in a surprising color palette that echo the jewel-toned hanging glass lamps he also designed. Some of the prints pay homage to the characteristic waves present in his buildings and the black-and-white floors over his iconic Lincoln Road project. Intricate details in the clothing and accessories honor his perfect balance of tasteful flamboyance and bring back his famously celebrated line: Too much is never enough.
