In a stunning departure from her Parisian roots, the visionary designer Marine Serre brings her fashion prowess to the enchanting city of Florence, Italy, as the esteemed guest designer of Pitti Uomo 106. The highly anticipated runway show, aptly titled "SEMPRE LEGATI" (ALWAYS BONDED), marks a pivotal moment for the Maison, as it ventures beyond the confines of Paris for the first time.
The invitation to the show, a meticulously crafted passport cover by the renowned local atelier Cuoio di Toscana, sets the stage for the collection's overarching theme. By obscuring the nationalities of the guests with the signature airbrushed moon pattern, Marine Serre embraces the profound concept of "Citizens of the World," inviting all to embark on this captivating couture journey.

The opening ensemble epitomizes Marine Serre's vision of grace and sophistication, featuring a dramatic couture crinoline juxtaposed with an artfully crafted top adorned with vintage jewelry.
Regenerated Materials: The Heart of Marine Serre
True to the brand's unwavering ethos, the collection showcases Marine Serre's steadfast dedication to sustainability and circularity.
