THE EIDETIC CATEGORIES OF MISSONI

In this pattern of Missoni we see only the icon of style that made the fashion designer famous, but also a sophisticated game of eidetic categories, which uses shapes to send to the receiver particular sensations.

In this cardigan we can see a large use of triangles and diamonds (that are double overlapped triangles) that intersect between them (they send to the receiver an idea of stability and security). Then, we can see broken lines, acute angles (aggressive-ness).

This composition of lines and shapes generate a ka-leidoscope of feelings: energy, strength, determination, aggressiveness, but also stability and self-confidence.

Lines are very incisive and dynamic and find a balance in the bag, which is roundish and circular, sending feelings of softness, welcome, warmth, femininity and of privilege, too.

Through semantic categories (tactile, metric, optical: is a short, tight, hot, slight dress) it's possible to evoke in the mind of the receiver the idea of a comfortable, practical, feminine dress, which is cloaked in a hinted sensuality, en-ergy and wealth of ideas and interests suggested in the robe's polichromy.

This cardigan of Missoni evokes a woman full of energy, ideas, self confidence and gently sensual, a stimulating woman rich of interests. A really interesting and pleasant person.
