EXCLUSIVE: 4 MONCLER SIMONE ROCHA

Lending her signature boy-meets-girl touch to the Moncler Genius Project, Irish designer Simone Rocha was inspired by the Victorian mountain climbers of the 19th century, which she reinterpreted via voluminous silhouettes, deconstructed proportions and a new idea of practical femininity. In Rocha’s signature red, pink, ivory and black with pearl, matched to her iconic sprinklings of sequins, cascades of ruffles and frills, and delicate embroidery, the designer bonds her idea of femininity with the utilitarian practicality of Moncler. Floral pearl embellishments and black sequins are effortlessly incorporated into the seams of the garments to recall the flowers and foliage that grows spontaneously amidst rocks and cracks.
