LOOK 24 - Autumn/Winter 2026-2027 Artisanal Collection ‘SALOMÉ’ presented at the Musée National Gustave Moreau, Paris.
AZZOPARDI presents Salomé, a collection examining one of history’s most enduring female figures as she moves between scripture, mythology, and seduction. Neither confined to history nor fantasy, Salomé exists as a cultural construct that has been continually rewritten across literature, painting, opera, film, and fashion. She becomes a lens through which to explore couture, craft, cultural memory and cross-border dialogue.
AZZOPARDI approaches Salomé as an act of research. Garments function as vessels of memory, constructed through extensive artisanal handwork and textile manipulation. Reimagined as fragmented, dismantled and reconstructed forms, veils are transformed into sculptural garments which blur boundaries of concealment.
Drawing together the mythology of Salomé’s Seven Veils and the Maltese għonnella, the collection establishes an unexpected dialogue between two distinct cultural narratives, examining how dress mediates identity, ritual and female representation across geographies.
