MFW 2018- Review of the new collection of Ritienne Zammit ATRONYMIC- High Fashion and Taste served f

Valletta, MALTA- Only a day before the 20th anniversary of Malta Fashion Awards 2018 was the day reserved for the last fashion show of my really favourite Maltese designer and great friend that I personally work with it and represent this brand not just in Malta but even abroad internationally.

Rittienne Zammit one more time show to everyone why she is the top of the fashion in Malta and why she is so favourite among the artists, models and fashion bloggers. Myself I was so emotional during this show cause I was so happy and amazed knowing how much energy was involved into this project. Me and Grazielle Camilleri were the only one that wear also designs from the new collection among all other people wearing this brand on the day of the show. This was one of the fewest shows where we had a lot of people dressed in the designer brand.





This year’s collection, _ATRONYMIC, represents the illustrious heraldry of Malta’s family names. These various surnames will be worn boldly, displayed on diverse garments with meaningful motifs. Geometric, surrealist prints embolden this notable theme, inspired by designs of various Maltese coat-of-arms. A colourful and monochromatic collection exhibits an expressive approach to paying tribute to the history behind these families. Maltese family names show substantial evidence of the Arab period in Malta. The language itself was derived from Siculo and North African dialectal Arabic which can be seen clearly through these Maltese surnames. A historical and commemorative approach to design is something that her audience has become accustomed to seeing in Ritienne’s numerous collections, along with her innovative, yet contemporary designs. _ATRONYMIC displays pieces which can be adapted easily to weather conditions year-around. Zammit`s attention to construction detail this year is inspired by climate change and her awareness of a need for season-less garments.


Lets see some of the most spectacular designs of the night :





This show was a pure magic, high fashion and class served from not anymore just local Maltese designer but now a world class designer reach the highest level that one designer can reach in his presentation. This was so original, different and complete which show stability and originality from this designer. The make up and hair was also something different and suit the needs of the design. This was one new face of Ritienne that try to be different from all other presentations till now but to keep the identity and her signature involved in her brand. On other side this was the only show that present what one fashion show really means and that's the High fashion and exhibitionism among the curiosity to play with fabrics, colours and shapes. Ritienne you are our star and you are the best !

Let me think what is your opinion about this fashion show <3

With love
