<p><span>Modern, sober, yet deeply evocative: Max Mara is to fashion what Colette is to literature. The French writer is in all respects the muse of the Max Mara autumn winter 2024-25 collection.</span></p>

        <p style="text-align: justify;"><span>The black and white photographs depicting the beauties of the Belle &Eacute;poque in the Bois inspire the abundance of full black looks for the <strong><a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/max-mara-s-an-army-of-women-spring-summer-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Max Mara</a> autumn winter 2024-25 fashion show</strong> . The Japanese-influenced ovoid silhouette is found in new coats, sometimes with kimono sleeves, sometimes with a large volume on the back. Long or short, the silhouette is highlighted by a wide knitted band at the waist, combined with a belt, like an obi. Soft leather bags with stylized buckle complete the look. Colette said: &ldquo;There are connoisseurs of blue just as there are connoisseurs of wine.&rdquo; Max Mara offers a dark ink navy and cobalt to match with jet <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/explore-the-timeless-elegance-of-black-cocktail-dresses" target="_blank" rel="noopener">black</a> and smoky grey.</span></p>
        <p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Colette often dressed as a man. Her beautiful alter ego, Ch&eacute;ri, shows off great classics: impeccable officer's coats, pea coats and the inevitable Max Mara jackets. Scenes set in a boudoir in strong dim light inspire camisoles, splip dresses and Teddys. Interpreted in drap, flannel and <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/chanel-illuminates-manchester-with-a-fusion-of-tweed-and-music" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tweed</a> with visible stitching they become a seductive counterpoint to Max Mara's urban look. Delicate ruffles give new femininity to skirts and tunic dresses. Fluttering pajamas and flowing dressing gowns in flannel or midnight blue velvet give a new meaning to day and evening; when night falls, the glimmer of blue and black crystals underline their rigorous geometry.</span></p>
        <p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Colette described in detail the scrupulous beauty routine of the characters in her writings: the outfit chosen to elicit compliments, the light veil of powder, the lipstick or the nail polish: those small touches that generate magic. Who is this careful care of one's appearance intended for? Colette had no doubts: &ldquo;Beautiful? For who? But like, for myself, obviously.&rdquo;</span></p>
