Once again Gherardo Felloni, artistic director of Roger Vivier, does not betray expectations by giving the public another one of his own surprising short to present the new one Fall / Winter 2021 collection.
Original, pungent, ironic, Do We Show? it is provocative right down to the title. Conceived when the pandemic brought fashion and the organization of events for the general public to its knees, like all other sectors, the film aims to be cinematographic reflection and at the same time denunciation of the current situation.
The narration is entrusted to five actresses who play some of the most loved divas of all time, as well as dear admirers of the Roger Vivier world: Joséphine Baker, Marlene Dietrich, Grace Kelly, Marilyn Monroe e Edith Piaf. Guests of a fashion show that does not start, however, the five women get impatient, go up on stage, recite monologues, compete in beauty and style, becoming the protagonists of the show that shows no sign of coming to life.
IS the idea of waiting, that of a new beginning, of a new chapter, of the end of this agony, of the return to normality to pervade the entire film. “It would be absurd to pretend nothing happened. You had to get over it, play with this idea of waiting »explains Felloni. In this film a question arises, “what if we were all performers?”.
A film that intertwines reality and fiction, uncertainties and certainties, drama and an unfailingly ironic ending. “You know, it is difficult to act without an audience” says Marlene Dietrich, as if to testify to that universal feeling that is common to all the personalities of the entertainment world at the moment. But without losing hope, Felloni responds to melancholy with a collection imbued with charm and audacity.
Among the key pieces the Covered Buckle Platform Boot, a boot up to the knee, with stiletto heel, platform and the inevitable buckle made by hand in patent leather. And the bag Viv ‘Choc, embellished by the reinterpretation of the iconic buckle as a contemporary and sensational jewel.
