Marco Capaldo’s Spring Summer 2024 collection for 16Arlington unfolds like the curves of an open road – a night drive, a lost highway, a woman with her heel on the accelerator. “It’s the freedom that comes with getting behind the wheel and just driving,” Capaldo says. Feminine and masculine codes meet like strangers passing: the red dress, the Wall Street shirt, the stiletto heel, the tank top – familiar archetypes rewritten into new stories. What’s familiar becomes unfamiliar: sequins made from feather-light latex or polished silver metal, nylon creased like paper, ostrich plumes sealed in translucent vinyl, and paillettes printed in deep blue “like raindrops on a car window.”
