La Perla SS16 Collection

When we think of La Perla, what generally comes to mind is elegant, sensual lingerie, crafted to perfection, mainly made from high-quality fabrics and exactly what we dream of clothing our bodies in.
Probably, a smaller percentage are aware that their swimwear line is also just as glorious and well made. Far fewer people are familiar with their lingerie as outerwear line which builds on top of the lingerie line – timeless pieces that are always sexy yet never vulgar.

I visited the La Perla showroom throughout Milan Fashion Week to preview the SS16 collection. The collection brings together a harmony of different pieces, ranging from lingerie and beachwear to sleepwear and loungewear. Many pieces are able to transition boundaries and move from one line into another.  One of the more interesting new pieces is a new exclusive bra feature that features a sort of sleeve that covers the back hook area. This would allow the bra to look like part of the outfit if left showing under a backless design. Another main focus is the bodysuit – think of it worn as outerwear, as lingerie and of course as a one piece swimsuit.
The new range of swimsuits features for the first time, the embroidered motifs that are synonymous with the La Perla house. These swimsuits are so beautiful they can be worn both as beachwear or as outerwear.
