Florentina Leitner FW24 PFW

The Florentina Leitner Fall/Winter 2024 collection, "L’Autrichienne" is inspired by one of the most iconic Austrian women in history. The Austrian fashion designer, based in Antwerp, debuted her latest Fall/Winter 2024 Collection on February 27, 2024, once again at Paris Fashion Week. This captivating showcase delivered a fusion of femininity and elegance, portraying a contemporary interpretation of Marie Antoinette. 

Drawing inspiration from Sofia Coppola's iconic movie, the collection encapsulates the spirit of a modern Marie Antoinette – a chic and confident woman who adores dogs, bows and a touch of glitter. This unique blend of historical influence and modern flair created a fashion narrative that is both timeless and avant-garde. Leitner’s signature aesthetic delicately threads through each design, creating a harmonious and enchanting ensemble for the upcoming Fall/Winter season. The thoughtful blend of historical inspiration and the designer's distinctive touch promises a collection that is both captivating and elegantly sophisticated. 

Through the use of lavish textiles, the collection introduces a marriage of ornate details and modern elements. Screen printed Poodle T-shirts and biker jackets mixed with rich velvet fabrics intertwine with faux fur accents, while elegant silhouettes clash with bold statement pieces, creating a harmonious blend of historical richness and contemporary edge. Puffy flowers and sleeves, reminiscent of the ornate fashion of the 18th century, meet contemporary tailoring and playful prints, infusing the collection with a sense of humour and elegance. For shoes, Leitner collaborated with sneaker brand “ATCROX” on feminine pearl beaded velvet sneakers and silver glittery footwear, echoing Marie Antoinette's court.
