Alaïa reinterprets the black dress with elegance and ease

November 2, 2022

Alaïa unveils an essential silhouette of everyone's wardrobe, the black dress. Emblematic of the Alaïa vocabulary, creative director Pieter Mulier reinterprets the wardrobe staple with codes from the house. The driving philosophy is to create simple, sensual, and elegant pieces that can be worn from day to evening, with ease and elegance.

The result is plural — a celebration of diversity and of the body-conscious commitment Alaïa has always promoted. Pieter Mulier conceived eleven black dresses. Eleven pure shapes. Created for all types of bodies.

With this capsule collection, Pieter Mulier seeks the essence of femininity, with a reverential eye and respect. A long-time friend of the house and legendary photographer Paolo Roversi shot the capsule collection. His vision emphasizes the infinite possibilities offered by the eleven black dresses. They sublimate every silhouette, matching anybody’s curves.

This capsule collection, available now in the Alaïa boutiques and on Maison-alaia.com, echoes two essential values for Alaïa: diversity and inclusivity.

Everyone can wear Alaïa.
