Daniel Roseberry, creative director of Schiaparelli, presented a collection at Paris Fashion Week that blends aerodynamic simplicity with the house's signature surrealist excess.
The collection featured stretch cocktail frocks alongside bolder pieces. Gold-foiled nipples and peekaboo fabrics remained central to the aesthetic, showing Roseberry's commitment to the provocative glamour Schiaparelli has become known for under his direction.
Schiaparelli remains a small operation in the luxury fashion landscape. The house operates only 10 retail points worldwide. Revenue has grown substantially, rising from $6 million in 2020 to approximately $100 million today, yet the brand remains modest compared with competitors on the Paris catwalks.
The Schiaparelli name carries outsized cultural weight. A 2026 exhibition at London's V&A museum examined founder Elsa Schiaparelli's role as a creative force in the 1930s surrealism movement. Schiaparelli collaborated with Salvador Dali and Jean Cocteau during that era, establishing the house as part of art history, not just fashion history. That legacy informs Roseberry's approach to the contemporary collection, which balances wearable ease with theatrical provocation.
