The collection tells the story of dreams, loves, successes, and summer evenings through the garments, the result of an interplay of styles, inspirations, and references that blend and contaminate each other. Sardinia, in its most explicit form, is represented by the jacquard design of the Nuraghe, the quintessential symbol of an ancient land that guards time itself, accompanied by prints in shades of ecru and black that evoke the island’s millennia-old stones and archaic landscapes.

Lightweight silks draped like couture gowns, denim treated like leather, leather printed like fabric, knitwear transformed into raffia or embroidered with precious details, and sweatshirts become a canvas for inlays of all the materials in the collection or a blank sheet on which to draw or apply American university crests. From leopard prints to ramage, from checks to spotted patterns and flowers, all shades of ecru and black bring to life corset-fitted dresses, flowing gowns, oversized shirts, summer shorts, fluid pants, draped skirts, jumpsuits, and kaftans. The dresses, skirts, and tops feature sumptuous embroideries, delicate lace, and bold fringes, creating a silhouette that is evocative yet contemporary.

Anna Maria writes to her mother from Beverly Hills with nostalgia and love, recounting her dazzling life in Hollywood and the unbreakable bond she shares with her beloved Sardinia, especially Alghero, which she always carries in her heart. She confides her deep feelings for Jimmy, an actor who has captured her heart, and tenderly tries to help her mother understand how special their love is, hoping she will accept their union. Despite their differences, Anna Maria is certain that Jimmy is the man of her life. The letter closes with a passionate longing to soon return to Sardinia, her soul’s homeland, and to hear news from the family.
