Milan, Palazzo Acerbi. A place steeped in legend, known as “The House of The Devil”, becomes today the new setting for the Elisabetta Franchi maison. Here, within walls that whisper secrets, Elisabetta Franchi inaugurates her new home and invites guests to step across its threshold.

The silhouettes sculpt the body without ever constraining it: fringes that fall freely or weave through the cuts of the garments, in tripolino, leather, or lightweight organza that opens into feather-light volumes. Draped jersey and tulle inserts create delicate plays of transparency, while net-effect embroideries amplify the sense of lightness and movement.

Dresses with fluid asymmetries converse with capri trousers and long, low-waist skirts. Tailored blazers emphasize the shoulders to the fullest, while knitwear, delicate as a second skin, conveys natural elegance. Blousons and pea coats take center stage in printed satin, with a raised texture reminiscent of ostrich leather.

Denim is renewed with abrasions and fraying, a mark of urban, carefree, liberated expression. The color palette plays with bold contrasts: black, butter, nude, and boudoir pink alternate with warm shades such as cocoa and clay, reaffirming the maison’s iconic tones.

Accessories amplify the power of the message: soft bags, whether maxi or mini, always designed with the wearer’s gesture in mind. On the feet, nappa or jersey mules, suede pumps, and ostrich-effect leather slingbacks. Statement jewelry embraces excess: large metal bracelets to be layered decisively, symbolizing character.

Empowerment, Femininity, Seduction, Determination, Beauty, Strength, Dedication, Energy, Evolution, Future.

Ten words that become style, ten keys to understanding a collection that turns into a manifesto of evolution and the future: a woman who knows how to tell her story through garments that do not merely clothe, but define identity.
