Sanremo 2021: The Representative of Lista, with fuchsia hair under the armpits, with a pop and feminist soul

If for many over 50s Sanremo is no longer what it once was, because the Big names are not known to everyone, so much so that they had to call into question the historic Gigliola Cinquetti or the reassuring Orietta Berti, after yesterday evening we can without hesitation say that Sanremo has changed its DNA, for a while now, becoming the stage where you dare and where there is room for every extravagance. And we are not talking about the paintings of Achille Lauro or the black lipstick of Fiorello and Damiano of the Maneskin.

The more attentive will have noticed a very special detail exhibited by the singer of the queer band The List Representative than to her fuchsia dress one shoulder she matched rose-tinted armpits, perfectly in nuance. Veronica Lucchesi, who performed on the Ariston stage with the song Amare, in addition to showing off an interesting haircut also in the name (it is called “ShOb” with “Queer pop” fringe, signed Flavio Scarfalloto for Compagnia della Bellezza using the products Tecniart di L’Oréal Professionnel), opened a new aesthetic chapter in the history of the singing festival: the armpits first bleached and then dyed pink shocking, work of the same team.

«Veronica has how beauty signature always the unshaved armpits e for Sanremo he wanted to dye them magenta to underline his pop rock soul and his creed queer which he also shared on his Instagram. For her, love is fuchsia. First, therefore, we have bleached and then toned colorfull. Together we did a research on the basis of this strong, intense, decisive and absolutely nuance while hanging with the Valentino outfit and the message he wanted to communicate on stage, ”he says Salvo Filetti, artistic director of Compagnia della Bellezza. Veronica has chosen to combine music with an original gesture, which far from being a matter of pure aesthetic choice, defends the value of uniqueness and of freely expressing oneself, not adapting to imposed diktats.

Women’s hair in recent years is having a resurgence, have become more visible in popular culture and unlike the 70s, while remaining a feminist message, they have also acquired a decorative aesthetic connotation that is sometimes frivolous. In 2015 Miley Cyrus, in the sign of the hashtag #freeyourpits, showed the glamorous potential of a colored armpit, painting hers neon orange. The American stylist Roxie Hunt has been coloring theunderarm of her clients matching their hair color in rainbow shades. And the social shares are countless. Alyssa Bishop, 38, dyes her armpits and hair a deep blue and told the New York Times that she does it to test people: “If they don’t find it funny, it means they don’t deserve my time.” She herself admitted that she laughs every time she looks in the mirror. A few summers is also the fashion of, not only to color fluo, but also fill your armpits with glitter.

Recall that the trend was launched by the Chinese feminist Xiao Meili on her Weibo blog, as a provocation against gender discrimination. In conclusion, between declaration and ornament, in any case, long live the freedom of expression that also passes on the stage of the Ariston.
