The hourglass silhouette is back in haute couture fashion, amid the popularity of GLP-1 analogs, the so-called weight-loss medications. The houses Armani Privé, Schiaparelli, Ashi Studio, and Standing Ground have bet on corsets and defined waists that extremely highlight feminine curves in their latest collections. This movement contrasts with the winter collections of Gucci, Mugler, and Roberto Cavalli, which are heading in a different aesthetic direction.
On the red carpet, actress Zendaya stood out by wearing a white dress with a sculpted bodice from Schiaparelli at the premiere of the film "The Odyssey." Another personality who drew attention was American lawyer and lobbyist Heather Podesta, an art collector, who chose a black model from the French maison that mimicked a horse saddle.
Stylist Flávia commented that fashion is going through a transition from the strong oversized moment to a silhouette that can showcase the results of the so-called weight-loss medications. For her, the return of the marked body represents a study of the female body that seeks to highlight curves intentionally.
