TERRAZZO
Sergio Tacchini launches preview of the FW18 collection.
Milan, June 2018: Sergio Tacchini, the historic sportswear brand, anticipates the Fall with a capsule that uses colour to keep memories of the summer alive.
The capsule is inspired by one of the brand's lines from the nineties, copying its volumes, oversize fit, geometries and colour blocking, with the addition of a microprint of an irregular, colourful texture that reworks the concept of "Venetian terrazzo", a special kind of floor tile made of marble chip and coloured stones. Used in ancient Greece and then in imperial Rome, it is today providing inspiration for our designers, who have turned it into the pattern for this collection.
The capsule comprises a cotton polo shirt in a multicolour microprint, two outerwear garments and a pair of trousers, all in techno fabric. The outerwear feature diagonal cuts and blocks of primary colours: red, blue and white, plus royal and a touch of neon yellow.
Terrazzo will be available in top boutiques in Europe from July 2018.
Sergio Tacchini, a world known Italian sportswear brand, was established in 1966 by the Italian tennis player Sergio Tacchini.
