For summer 2012, Dirk Bikkembergs athletes dive into water. Thus showing the artistic beauty of a discipline as strict and harmonic as synchronized diving. When more bodies draw lines in the air in masterfully coordinated evolution, we have to admire their extraordinary perfection. And perfection is an art.
From this awareness comes the desire to stage a catwalk on which the protagonist’s body, dressed almost entirely in white, is more important than anything else. White is here to serve as the color of the skin, impeccably tanned and golden in the summer sun. The material chosen for this new collection is the sponge, add the obligatory jersey and an absolute novelty: the neoprene used to make the costumes of swimming champions from around the world. These leaders were born from the creativity of the fashion house of Dirk Bikkembergs, and the revolutionary technology of the X-Glide custom applications developed by Arena.
Dirk Bikkembergs and Arena: fashion and sports come together as the sign of the avant-garde design, for an unprecedented partnership.

Sergio Corneliani the brand’s creative director, suggest a style balanced between the hectic city life and a dreamlike, out of this world holiday represented by the magic of the desert, echoed in the comfort of forms and colours: white, beige and sand.
Created with the aid of tradition and technology, abaca – the star of the next S/S collection is a new vegetable fibre which is water resistant, extremely thin, and elastic. Also known as a Manila hemp, this plant grows without the intervention of humans and symobolizes a more environmentally correct kind of fashion. To emphasise the desire for nature and escape, the models walk on the sand of an imaginary desert across the fashion show’s set.
The keywords are confidence and comfort, the new rules of contemporary elegance, with attention to detail as the only touch of ironic eccentricity.
