Ornella Muti “betrays” Armani: Francesco Scognamiglio dresses her at the Festival

On the stage of the Ariston Ornella Muti amazes everyone: her looks will not be signed by her friend Giorgio Armani

If Amadeus has promised that this 72nd Sanremo Festival will be full of surprises, it is to be believed that what seemed to be a certainty is no longer such. In truth, Fantasanremo is not only played among singers, but also among fashion addicts who have always had fun guessing who will dress whom. And that Armani, one of his most beloved designers , would have dressed Ornella Muti also given their long-term friendship seemed to be a bet already won. But no: the actress in fact surprised everyone, also giving clear details on this unexpected choice.

Ornella Muti at the prime time of Sanremo 2022: her looks designed by Francesco Scognamiglio

The actress will be the first co-host to join Amadeus and for her it is her first time at the Ariston: a real debut for which surprisingly Ornella Muti has chosen Francesco Scognamiglio as stylist, the Neapolitan designer who will sign her looks . The name of Scognamiglio is not new, having curated the looks of her friend Emma Marrone several times, including in Sanremo in 2015 when the singer was presenter alongside Carlo Conti together with Arisa.

Behind the stylist’s choice is Ornella Muti’s desire to marry a trend that this year is very strong within the event: to focus on sustainable fabrics and on a wardrobe that meets the taste for the show but also respect for the ‘environment.

Some indiscretion about the looks we will see comes from the Neapolitan stylist, who has chosen a type of dress trend of the catwalks of recent months and that we will see in the style that characterizes Scognamiglio, a lover of dresses in transparencies and embellished with finely worked details.

Francesco Scognamiglio: “I will take care of Ornella’s image at the Festival, from dresses to beauty looks”

For Scognamiglio, also linked by a long friendship to Ornella Muti, it was a surprise to take care of the look of the first evening as well as that of the second evening, news arrived just a few days before the beginning of the Festival. The actress will rely completely on him, even for the beauty looks: “I take care of her image from the tip of her hair to that of her feet, working closely with her team of make-up artists and hairdressers” , said the stylist.

And on the clothes he revealed some more details on which he thought were most suitable for the occasion, starting with the first one we will see the actress wear: “I see her as a heroine and since in Sanremo she will talk about safeguarding the planet I I chose only natural fabrics, apart from the neoprene of the bodice for the first model which is technically a sculpture-dress . It is a long black peplum with a deep slit on the left mounted on the neoprene bustier, entirely covered with jet “.

The second instead will be a tribute to the sensuality of women: a flesh-colored tunic in evasion tulle entirely embroidered with tinsel and Swarovski, with a nude satin bust embroidered with 3D crystals underneath, an effect dress in the full style of the maison. To embellish it the jewels of Delfina Delettrez , daughter of Silvia Venturini Fendi .
