Autumn is a season of refined melancholy, slower pace, and quiet clarity. It is the time to change the wardrobe from light and airy to thoughtful and mysterious. And if the weather outside doesn’t reflect the mood, it is still important to create the vibe, because autumn is a season to be fully experienced, as it is written into films, music, and fashion alike. Hopefully, AMIDA has in the latest drop pieces that reflect this mood, and we are here to tell you more about that. 

To capture this aesthetic accurately we suggest choosing clothes in sculptural silhouettes. These pieces were one of the hottest trends of the autumn collections for this season – from Paris and London runways to New York street style they have replaced more oversized silhouettes.

These architectural shapes are the easy way to add a twist to the outfit while keeping it unique. Strict lines, waist accents, and dramatic proportions make these types of clothes more expressive, transforming it into art pieces.

Clothes with a sculptural cut work also in everyday wardrobe: structured jackets, mini dresses with graphic sleeves, cape coats, and even accessories like belts or hats have this architectural aesthetic that easily applies not only on runways. 

Decades later in the 90s another turning point came with Comme des Garçons’ Spring/Summer 1997 collection Body Meets Dress, Dress Meets Body, also known as Lumps and Bumps. The series dramatically redefined what a silhouette could be.

A brief historical note

These designs truly came from art. In the 20th century, many fashion designers began to use this approach to reshape silhouettes and experiment with volume.  One of the first famous examples was Elsa Schiaparelli’s 1938 Le Cirque collection that she created in collaboration with Salvador Dali. This series included the famous Skeleton Dress that had quilted, padded bones.

Presented pieces included padded humps and distorted volumes, and through this shifted focus With its padded humps and distorted volumes, it radically redefined what a silhouette could be, and shifted the focus from flattering the figure to questioning and reshaping it.

By dedicating more fabric, time, and care, we deliver pieces that are far beyond ordinary clothing. But we also have a couple of particular models from the latest drop that reflect the sculptural silhouette we’ve been telling you about. In our collection, we suggest keeping it calm and safe but without losing the sense of extraordinary artistry.  

Years and years after that designers continued to push the boundaries of traditional tailoring and moved further from conventional shapes to wearable pieces of art. In AMIDA’s collection, all the garments are known as hand-crafted works of art. We work only with rare and high-quality Italian fabrics. Сoncealed seams, intricate finishes, uncompromising detail.

An architectural blazer with a sculptural silhouette is based on the contrast of textures. The hard shape sets a strict volume, referring to the masculine cut, while lace reveals sensuality and drama. This duality makes the image a statement about the combination of masculine and feminine, volume and lightness.

A sculptural mini-dress in ivory with a structured cut and architectural sleeves embodies the idea of clean lines. The fitted silhouette and the sleeves that expand downwards create an architectural form in which strict geometry is combined with soft plastics. It’s not just clothes, but a form that reflects strength and character.
