Louise Bourgeois’s indelible works across sculpture, drawing, and textile have long fascinated artists, architects, and designers alike. But for spring, her influence takes a new form: fashion. SANDRO channels one of Bourgeois’s most enduring motifs — the spiral — into a capsule collection that feels as intimate as it is seasonally forward.
“Like Louise, we tried to reflect on our relationship with clothes,” says Evelyne Chetrite, Founder and Artistic Director of SANDRO. “We may have found a way to master the chaos that surrounds us.”
Bourgeois once disassembled her own clothes to make art. SANDRO embraces this upcycling spirit with reconstructed silhouettes: airy shirts, wide-leg trousers, fluid dresses, and wide-brimmed hats that feel at once composed and undone, as if styled by Bourgeois herself. Linen voile, cotton poplin, and silk twill ground the collection in a sense of coastal ease.
Under the imagined parasols of a Mediterranean beach, SANDRO’s palette embraces sea-washed blues and sun-faded neutrals, organic geometry, painterly tiles, and summer light. The visual language of spirals is woven throughout: fractured, concentric, almost kaleidoscopic. It hints at motion, memory, and quiet subversion. Like Bourgeois, the collection speaks in symbols rather than declarations.
SANDRO’s summery tribute to Bourgeois is a love letter to the icon’s softer side and art in its own right — an emotional-material connection made visible, wearable, and quietly unforgettable.
