OCHRE IN FASHION

The major ingredient of this ancient natural colour is iron oxide-hydroxide, known as limonite, which gives it its yellow colour. The hue belongs to a family of earth pigments, it ranges in colour from yellow to deep orange or brown. Ochre is a family of earth pigments, which includes yellow ochre, red ochre, purple ochre, sienna, and umber. From the Red Indians to the Romans, to modern day trendsetters, Ochre has enduring appeal. Ochre was used in decorative palette of the Romans, as well as Medieval Church painters. The Aboriginals have painted with Ochres for over 40 000 years and the Red Indians took their name from the Red Ochre they painted themselves with.

70's TIROL CAPE

The cape is a shorter version of the mantel, devoid of longitudinal cuts for the arms. In various lengths and in different fabrics it was fashionable at the end of the nineteenth century and in the 50s and 70s.  Franca Sozzani wrote for Vogue Encyclo: "The cape has always exerted a mysterious and magical appeal. Beginning with fairy tales in which the handsome prince arrives on a white horse, dressed in a flowing blue cape. Obviously. All throughout fashion and costume history, capes and mantles of every sort have played a role in the clothing of every population. In the Victorian age, capes and wraps, sometimes embroidered or with paisley motifs for women, were alternated with black, fur-lined capes for men. From 1910, the cape began to come into its moment. Paul Poiret was definitely one of the first tailors responsible for the transformation of the cape, playing with its shape in various forms".

 La Cappa è una versione più corta della mantella, priva di tagli longitudinale per le braccia. In varie lunghezze e in tessuti diversi è stata di moda alla fine del diciannovesimo secolo e tra gli anni '50 e '70.  La compianta Franca Sozzani ha scritto per l'enciclopedia di Vogue: "La mantella esercita da sempre una magia e un misterioso fascino. A cominciare dalle favole per bambini in cui il principe azzurro arriva a cavallo di un bianco destriero e con un mantello azzurro. In tutti i percorsi storici della moda e del costume mantelle di ogni tipo si sono alternati nell'abbigliamento di ogni popolo. Nell'epoca Vittoriana il mantello o le mantelline anche ricamate o con disegni paisley per le donne si alternano a quelle nere e foderate di pelliccia per gli uomini. Dall'inizio del 1910 la mantella conosce un momento di grande fulgore. Paul Poiret è sicuramente uno dei primi sarti a cimentarsi nel cambio delle forme e giocherà attorno alla cappa in modi diversi.
