Anna Dello Russo x The Dubai Mall

Cool aquamarine and gold create the feel of a fishtank in Dubai, where Anna Dello Russo employs colourblock and a profusion of accessories to manifest a sense of abundance; feathers, fluff, Valentino Garavani gloves and bags paint the mannequins like tropical fish, creating a limpid window from the street into a bright and beautiful world. Fantasy reigns supreme in this display, inviting passers-by to slip off their shoes and dive right in.

Anna Dello Russo, former Editor at Large and Creative Consultant for Vogue Japan, now still one of the influent fashion journalists, on and off the net, indeed one of the first ones to know how to use it to the point of branding herself.
An eclectic character who lives multiple lives. Helmut Newton thought of her as a "fashion maniac".
Anna worked in Condè Nast Italia Group for 18 years, starting as a Fashion Editor for Vogue Italia, then becoming editor of L’Uomo Vogue from 2000 to 2006 and after from this year to 2020 Creative Director of Vogue Japan.

She is now in fashion consultancy for different fashion brands and work with social media playing with her multiple looks .
Well known for her fashion style and taste she is the perfect fashion advocate of excesses.

“This collection is about the removal of what exceeds. It’s about subtraction. But I am a lover of excess and exaggeration, and so I wanted to create my own paradoxical dialogue, adding and exceeding with colors, sparkles and wonderful embroideries that take you back to a fantasy world. This represents my dialogue with Dubai. This is where my desire to tell the story through fabulous color and incredible Valentino Garavani accessories - as hats with feathers and gloves - was born.”
