'[Grazia] Malagoli played on a more sensual and feminine note than usual, revealing Sportmax’s softer side.' View the entire Sportmax resort 2021 collection and read our full review:
Sportmax’s fashion director Grazia Malagoli set up an impromptu showroom for resort appointments on a sprawling terrace in Milan’s city center. While maintaining safe-distance guidelines, the breezy en plein air situation lifted post-confinement moods. Determined to bring the same feel-good factor to the collection, Malagoli played on a more sensual and feminine note than usual, revealing Sportmax’s softer side.
Graphic constructions were softened into more feminine form-fitting shapes featuring plays of folding, draping, and asymmetrical cuts. Tailoring was still precise, but was given a fresh twist with plisséd techniques, as in a double-breasted trench coat in beige cotton gabardine whose front transitioned seamlessly into what Malagoli called a “vanishing pleats” effect.
Heightening the sensual aesthetic, bustiers, one-shoulder column dresses, and backless knitted tops revealed flashes of bare skin. On a similar note, tight pencil skirts in high-gloss technical fabrics were worn with square-cut military shirts, while an off-the-shoulder printed dress with a flared asymmetrical skirt nodded at the 1950s. Also vintage in flavor was a floral motif, reworked into an abstract pattern and printed on a sexy spongy-textured minidress.
