All of Fashion Month is a kind of sartorial fantasy, but in 2021 few garments hit the escapist nerve quite like evening-wear. After a year deprived of frothy social events, women are lusting over inappropriately extravagant party dresses\u2014and few brands do them better than 16Arlington<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For Fall 2021, designers Federica Cavenati and Marco Capaldo offered fantastical fashion in droves\u2014sheer column dresses embroidered with giant orange feathers, delicately sequinned mini-dresses worn with exaggerated fishnet tights, and dramatically square-toed mules…Elsewhere, the collection had surprisingly ‘everyday’ touches: brown faux snakeskin sets, flared trousers, and leather suiting.<\/p>\n

Cavenati and Capaldo\u2014themselves a couple enduring London’s seemingly never-ending lockdown\u2014were drawn to the concept of “confinement” while designing Fall 21. Their references included the contemporary French artist Hubert Durprat, whose pieces often feature insects frozen and cocooned in extravagant materials like gold, opals, and diamonds. The clothes themselves became an extension of this concept\u2014precious layers for those trapped in stasis.<\/p>\n

Following their launch in 2017, 16Arlington quickly found a cult following<\/a> (think: Solange, Adwoa Aboah, Lena Dunham, Lady Gaga) who embraced their ethos of ‘design for a good time.’ Cavenati and Capaldo, who met while studying at the London arm of the celebrated Italian fashion school Istituto Marangoni, expertly strike the balance between Italian maximalism and a touch of Scandi restraint\u2014best exemplified by their pairing of razor-sharp statement collars with glitter, sequins, and marabou trim.<\/p>\n

But that visual frothiness shouldn’t be mistaken for frivolity. The couple’s good-time aesthetic is married with a serious commitment to ethical design. For Spring Summer 2021 the duo created a tight 14-piece collection, including reissues of fan favorites from their archive. It’s all part of a greater plan to encourage sustainable consumption. “Now more than ever it\u2019s important to pick your pieces wisely and intuitively,” they said in an interview<\/a> at the time. “The idea of thoughtless excess is dated.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Fall 21 collection will drop around September, by which time we will, God willing, have returned to something resembling ‘real life.’ The promise of a perfectly-crafted dress by 16Arlington\u2014one you’ll wear again and again\u2014seems as good a reason to look hopefully toward the future as any.<\/p>\n
