VENUS

The suspensions are freely inspired by the sinuosity and curves of the female body and have been made of metal and lycra: a slender skeleton and a soft and elastic skin that covers it.
Just as happens with the human body, the fabric is imagined as a garment to be worn and changed at will, dressing and undressing the shapes in a game of seduction.
Initially called "The K fiber", lycra was born in the 1950s and immediately entered the daily life of ladies,
suddenly becoming a skin enhancing their shapes thanks to its extremely elastic characteristic that perfectly wraps the body: containment sheaths, tights, swimwear.
It also has made a comeback to the catwalks in recent years giving birth to some of the most iconic garments of many fashion shows.
In the design field, Lycra has also been experimented in furniture by some great masters of the 1900s: perfect as a coating, ideal for lighting due to its transparency.
