On Tuesday 23rd of January 2023, Paris Fashion week was introduced by Schiaparelli with the collection Inferno<\/i><\/b>, a tribute to the literary work of Dante Alighieri<\/b> and, in particular, to the concept of doubt that pervades a creation: the fear of not being appreciated and the need to impress the audience and themselves.<\/p>\n

Like Dante halfway down the road of life<\/em>, the more he enters Hell, the more he realizes that any certainty had until then is fading, in the same way Daniel Roseberry<\/b> has decided to distancing himself from certainties to propose something new in giving life to the Heute Couture Collection spring-summer 2023, accepting the same constant doubt that pervades the artist in making something memorable<\/p>\n

Her fear enabled her bravery, which sounds counterintuitive but is key to the artistic process. Fear means you\u2019re pushing yourself to make something shocking, something new\u201d.\t\t\t<\/p>\n
