In Vivetta Ponti’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, the Anemone Dress emerges as a luminous tribute to the artistry of Italian couture. Born from sixty hours of meticulous craftsmanship, this creation channels the serenity and mystery of the underwater world through its refined details and sculptural grace.
Cut from sky-blue duchesse satin, the dress evokes the fluidity of water with its soft sheen and precise tailoring. A corset-inspired bodice defines the silhouette, its architectural structure tempered by Vivetta’s signature femininity — poised yet poetic. Around the waist blooms the centerpiece: a three-dimensional sea urchin motif, hand-embroidered with caviar glass pearls and bugle beads that shimmer like sunlight on rippling waves.
Each bead, applied by hand by six artisans, speaks to the dedication and heritage of Made in Italy craftsmanship. The iridescent embellishment catches the light in constant motion, transforming the dress into a living tableau of marine beauty. There is a meditative rhythm to such work — a devotion that transcends trends, elevating fashion into an art of permanence. The Anemone Dress is less an object of adornment than a testament to creative patience and human touch.
