You are a stylist with a long career full of successes, you started working in the fashion world at a very young age. What was your path?
My path in fashion began exactly like the one that the great couturières of the past have undertaken, that is, I had the opportunity to experience creativity and creative dexterity through the direct vision of the sartorial productions that were made in the Maison observing, designing and collaborating with some great fashion innovators including the great Karl Largefeld.
How does Roberto Guarducci interpret fashion?
Fashion is an essential element from the physicality and personality of those who will have to wear it. It is a visual and non-verbal form of communication much more important than you might think. Therefore, I propose a fashion that enhances the figure with elegance, class and sensuality without excessively altering the image.
He also designed and made stage clothes, worked with world famous supermodels. What was the most exciting moment of your career?
There have been so many exciting, important and rewarding moments in mine professional career but one I particularly remember is the one with the costume designer Piero Tosi, Oscar for Lifetime Achievement in Cinema, with whom I had the honor of being able to collaborate in the creation of clothes for an important Rai television program whose topics were fashion and cinema, fashion and theater and fashion and dance .
Among the many made, what is your favorite dress and why?
Each sartorial creation represents for me the expression of an emotion without which there cannot be a search for new shapes and new images. One of the dresses that I particularly love is theAngel Bride, so called because it represents the idealization of purity and femininity.
La Magia delle Muse is an Haute Couture event that you have conceived and directed. Do you want to talk about it?
It is an exclusive event that I have particularly desired and studied precisely to express that elegance that does not want to exhibit creations of forced originality, but which on the contrary wishes to highlight fashion through true beauty and that good taste that still makes people dream. observer and wanting to be lived and worn. The aim of “La Magia Delle Muse” is to highlight the enhancement of beauty through fashion, culture and art in all its expressions. From the first year it takes place in the Sala delle Muse of the Union Circle of the Petruzzelli Theater in Bari. The room is frescoed by the splendid paintings of the artist Armenise, which decorate the hall and represent the inspiring Muses of Beauty and Art, in a context of large mirrors and gilded stuccoes, with large crystal chandeliers.
The well-known Glamorous Event, over the years, has seen nationally and internationally famous stylists such as Gianni Molaro, Nino Lettieri, Franco Ciambella, Carlo Alberto Terranova Sarli New Land, Michele Miglionico, Claudia Perdicchia aka TITTA 'and many others. well-known celebrities from entertainment and fashion, as well as talented young people who are establishing themselves in the world of fashion with their brand.
It was a difficult year, an epochal period, with serious economic consequences in many sectors. Has fashion been affected?
La fashion it certainly suffered as sales fell dramatically as many events could not be held. Parades, weddings and all those events that were the starting point for the marketing of clothes, especially for luxury products, have been skipped. Nonetheless, we are all looking forward to a new restart with great enthusiasm.
What are Roberto Guarducci's next projects?
I have finished the creation of a new women's collection complete with clothes and accessories of great preciousness and creative value, to which I have dedicated a lot of effort and dedication and which I will present for the first time in fashion show at the seventh edition of "The Magic of the Muses" . The new collection of clothes will be the subject of a photo shoot in a fairytale and magical location, the perfect combination of Haute Couture and Art.
