Call me Blondie

The new season for Marina Rinaldi opens with a tribute to Debbie Harry, one of the most iconic and innovative protagonists of the international music scene who left a strong impression on the sound and style of the 1970s and 1980s at the helm of the group Blondie.

Her autobiography FACE IT describes the portrait of a brave, beautiful woman “born to be punk”. Marina Rinaldi's pre-fall collection recreates the glamorous underground atmosphere of Debbie Harry's début.

The colour palette is reduced to the essential: black and white dominate, for bold, sophisticated graphics intermingled with total black outfits.

Flashes of fuchsia and animalier details blend with the transparencies and see-through effects of mesh, a contemporary interpretation of the canons of the punk look.
