Editor’s Letter

April 2023

PRIMARK: LITTLE DUCKLING 2 PACK ROMPER- £7.50

Sally Morris Editor-in-chief Welcome to Swanky Magazine Fashion Edition April 2024 Issue!

COTTON TRADERS: SHORT SLEEVE SUMMER SHIRT- £29

DUNE LONDON MENS: BRONNY BLACK- £100

COTTON TRADERS: OXFORD SHORTS BASIL- £28

This month, we delve into the vibrant spring season. Spring is the season of renewal and rebirth, and this is brilliantly reflected in the fashion trends for Spring/Summer 2024. For both men and women, the fashion world is embracing vibrant colors, bold designs, and a return to nature.

Women’s fashion in Spring 2024 is all about expressing individuality with a focus on pastels and floral prints. The floral theme extends beyond just clothing, with make-up and body artwork also embracing this trend. Soft pastel colors are particularly popular, with shades of lavender, mint, and peach dominating the runway. LIPSY: ECRU DENIM JUMPSUITIn terms of clothing, flowing dresses, flared skirts, and oversized £66 blouses are the key pieces to look for. Accessories are not forgotten, with floral-themed jewelry and scarves making a big statement.

Men’s fashion is not far behind, with a focus on bold, vibrant colors.

Gone are the days where men’s fashion was confined to neutral shades. Spring 2024 sees men embracing fuchsia, emerald green, and electric blue. Tailored shorts, paired with lightweight blazers, offer a smart yet comfortable look for the warmer weather. Floral prints, though more subtle than in women’s fashion, are also making an appearance in men’s clothing.

Looking ahead to Summer 2024, the fashion world will continue to celebrate bold colors and prints, but with an added emphasis on comfort. For women, we can expect to see a lot of lightweight, breathable fabrics like linen and silk, perfect for the summer heat.

For men, loose-fitting clothing, particularly linen trousers and opencollar shirts, will be the trend.

DUNE LONDON: DELIBERATE 90 WHITE BAG- £90

ISLAND STYLE CLOTHING: GROOVY GRAPEFRUIT PARTY SHIRT & SHORTS SET- £47.01

DUNE LONDON: HOPEFUL 85 BLUE DENIM£85

In conclusion, the Spring/Summer 2024 fashion trends are all about celebrating individuality, embracing color, and returning to nature. So whether you’re a man or a woman, get ready to make a statement this season.

In wrapping up this month’s issue, we’d like to thank our readers for journeying with us through the vibrant and colorful fashion trends of Spring/Summer 2024 - Next month is our final spring-filled issue!

We hope that you’ve found inspiration in the pages of our magazine, and that you’ll join us in celebrating individuality, embracing bold colors, and returning to nature in your own unique fashion style.

THE “ARISTOCRATIC MUSE” IN THE CASTLE The perfect combination of “Art, Culture and Fashion” has exceptionally had the opportunity to take place in the splendid halls of the historic medieval Castle Dentice di Frasso in San Vito dei Normanni, an ancient and noble residence, whose origin dates back to between the twelfth and sixteenth centuries, the only example in Puglia still currently inhabited by the family of origin, Princes Giuliano and Fabrizia Dentice Di Frasso.

The Haute Couture designer Roberto Guarducci presented his capsule collection “Aristocratic Muse”, with his iconic sartorial creations, which include some of the most exclusive and refined dresses from his previous collections, which are combined in a single “trait d’union” with his latest creations of unpublished works, masterfully enhanced by the master of fashion photography Luigi D’Arcangelo.

With this capsule Guarducci intended to pay homage to the exclusive environments with its Aristocratic Muses, representing the idea of an extremely sophisticated and classy woman in a contemporary key, finding a timeless “Dream of Elegance” in a timeless place.

The creations chosen include dresses with a sober line and precious fabrics, which evoke the glamour of the ‘30s and ‘40s, enhanced by matching flowers and embroidery in Jais, crystals and pearls, edged with swan feathers and and Marabou, with ostrich feather boas.

Princess Maria Ortensia Dentice di Frasso was exceptionally ready to pose for some photographs, wearing some of the designer’s sartorial creations.

The beauty of the models was highlighted by the professionalism of the make-up artist Elisabetta Tansella while the hairstyles were taken care of by the well-known hair stylist Michele Palmisano and his Beaute’ group who enhanced the image.

The photo shoot was organized in collaboration with Salvatore Leone, who also takes care of public relations and the press office.

Fashion Assistants Carlo Clarizio and Davide Bardoscia of the Academy of Fine Arts in Bari.

We would like to thank the princes Giuliano and Fabrizia Dentice di Frasso for the prestigious and friendly opportunity granted to the designer for the realization of the shooting.
