The MTL Studio Spring Summer '21 collection "Italian Camping" is inspired by a wandering and romantic Italian summer, in a campsite during the 80s. A man divided between care and a sentimental "carelessness" in search of primordial emotions. In the informal context of the campsite, the garments’ evident contrast between wide volumes and tailoring, where daisies bloom asking the eternal question “she loves me, she loves me not” and the unknown of a childish and exotic feeling characterized by a romantic French contamination, the result of summer friendships. In the up and downs of love a splash of paint shapes the loving smiley face, symbol of the virtual sociality to which we have all recently been forced, is a champion of the rediscovery of the simple and essential things of life in a dimension of nostalgic authenticity.
