A Sense of Beauty, Episode 6: A Bit More Brilliant

With the collection due in a matter of days, Co-Creative Director Laura Kim and Director of RTW Hannah Barr return to Italy with a decidedly tactical focus. Fabrics spun of threads in the hues of the collection are now delivering to the sewing factories from Gentili Mosconi, and Hannah works with Parmamoda’s Product Manager Lisa Ye on the most flattering print placements for the silhouettes of the season. The two identify an inconsistency in the jersey iteration of Joe Henry Baker’s abstract painting print, placing the budding category’s developments in jeopardy. Lisa calls Gentili Mosconi to determine whether a rush reprint of the fabric will be possible in time. At their final stop in Borgosesia, Italy, Laura and Hannah work alongside long-term partner Andrea Rietti, General Manager of Fullin DUE SRL. Specializing in daywear, Fullin is a second home for the Oscar de la Renta RTW Design team. And when inspiration strikes, Laura and Hannah cut into the fabric, adding new styles and silhouettes down to the wire of the collection’s due date. 12 days to the collection due date. ― Established in New York City in 1965, Oscar de la Renta is one of the world's leading luxury brands.
