Prologued by a film by Luca Guadagnino, the Italian House was inspired by Hitchcock classics, looking towards surreal beauty for today's strange times.

Between saturated&nbsp;hues and vibrant colours,&nbsp;Paul Andrew, the&nbsp;creative director of&nbsp;Salvatore Ferragamo&nbsp;presented&nbsp;a collection of dazzling craftsmanship and timeless elegance for the italian house&#39;s spring 2021 collection.&nbsp;

&quot;This spring, stuck at home, I rewatched classic Hitchcock, in particular Marnie, The Birds and Vertigo. In the past, watching those movies has always felt like inhabiting a surreal and strange world. But watching them during lockdown was different: they felt like &ldquo;real life&rdquo; because &ldquo;real life&rdquo; itself had suddenly become so strange, surreal and oddly beautiful. There are several direct homages to key Hitchcock moments in the collection, and the collection echoes that gorgeous, hyper-real level of colour saturation that is so evident in the beautiful Technicolor masterpiece that is Vertigo,&quot; explains&nbsp;Andrews in a press release.

The collection emerges as a wardrobe of resilience and beauty for&nbsp;the&nbsp;heroines and heroes of a story that has never been told, whose end is looming.

To help shape this narrative, Ferragamo teamed up with Italian filmmaker&nbsp;Luca Guadagnino, the&nbsp;acclaimed directior of&nbsp;Call me by Your Name&nbsp;(2017), to come up with a short film consisting of&nbsp;&nbsp;series of unsung Milanese locations and depicted moments of suspense, intrigue, and beauty, which led to a climax played out live on the Salvatore Ferragamo runway show.

This film project certainly speaks to&nbsp;the soul of Salvatore Ferragamo, where Salvatore&#39;s pioneering work for the Los Angeles film industry means that the company, while Tuscan from start to finish, traces its lineage back to Hollywood&#39;s golden age. &quot;Connecting that story to our contemporary moment in time&nbsp;through film seemed an elegant and timely way to add an extra dimension to our physical fashion show,&rdquo; says Andrew.

The film stars&nbsp;Mariacarla Boscono,&nbsp;Maggie Cheung&nbsp;,&nbsp;Jonas Gloer,&nbsp;Samer Rahma&nbsp;and&nbsp;Anok Yai&nbsp;, accompanied by the soundtrack composed and produced by the prolific Chinese producer and DJ&nbsp;B6.

A myraid&nbsp;of colours travels across men&#39;s and women&#39;s garments, in vibrant hues from&nbsp;Hedren Green,&nbsp;Vertigo Mauve,&nbsp;Technicolor Yellow,&nbsp;Lobster Mousse&nbsp;and&nbsp;Bodega Bay Sky&nbsp;tones, contrasted with Gull Gray&nbsp;,&nbsp;Sparrow&nbsp;and&nbsp;Hitchcock Tan.&nbsp;Likewise, three-dimensional technical innovations, from recycled&nbsp;jersey&nbsp;dresses&nbsp;and sustainable wool/mohair herald a new way of conceiving design.&nbsp;

The collection features men&#39;s overalls and two-piece suits in solid colors.&nbsp;On the other hand,&nbsp;knitting comes centrestage with a honeycomb dress and a sweater in yellow Technicolour.&nbsp;In addition, textiles such as nappa, lambskin or chiffon stand out, with striking proportions designed for women on the move.&nbsp;

Likewise,&nbsp;open heel shoes and reinvented versions of the F-wedge&nbsp;emerge as a complement to the outfits, as well as a single-&nbsp;coloured Gancini&nbsp;pair&nbsp;for men.&nbsp;Each outfit is accompanied by must-have accessories like the&nbsp;&nbsp;Studio&nbsp;bag&nbsp;and&nbsp;Trefoil,&nbsp;whose design was inspired by an iconic scene&nbsp;from Hitchcock&#39;s Marnie.

Salvatore Ferragamo&nbsp;triumphs with an ideal collection to accompany all the twists of fate as in an authentic&nbsp;Hitchcock&nbsp;movie.
