Una lettera da Livia
“For forty years I pinned hems in a small atelier near Via della Spiga, in Milan.”
Buongiorno, cara. When a woman looks tired in her clothes, it is almost never the woman. It is a hem that stops in the wrong place, a colour that steals the light from her face, a fabric that has given up. Those things can be changed in an afternoon.
“Non è l'età, cara. È il taglio.” — It isn't your age, my dear. It's the cut.
I have never once changed a woman's body. Only her clothes.
A presto, care amiche — see you soon, dear friends.
Livia
