About Elsa Schiaparelli

Elsa Luisa Giovanna Maria Schiaparelli was an Italian fashion designer from an aristocratic background. She created Maison Schiaparelli in Paris in 1927, which she managed from the 1930s to the 1950s. Starting with knitwear, Schiaparelli's designs celebrated Surrealism and eccentric fashions. Her collections were famous for unconventional and artistic themes like the human body, insects, or trompe-l'œil, and for the use of bright colors like her "shocking pink".
