Married-duo Designers Anthony Cucculelli and Anna Rose Shaheen say their latest 'Veritas, Collection Seventeen' for their namesake luxury fashion brand; Cucculelli Shaheen is named after the goddess of truth in Roman mythology and embraces the core aesthetic of their New York-based brand.
The venue choice of the New York Supreme Court, and its mosaic flooring with astrology symbols, influenced their designs as well as R&B musical group Night Beats, the designers say they listened to intensely while designing this collection.
As a constant for Cucculelli Shaheen, the collection revolves around opposites: chaos and classicism, vice and virtue, a feverish and dreamy city.
Collection Seventeen introduces an oversized pajama hybrid set that can be worn with pants or solo with tights for a mini look, a tiered skirt combined with the hard edges of an oversized tuxedo coat, and a peaked strapless bustier dress with sharp angles styled with a soft petticoat skirt.
