11 Mar Style Dictionary: Sciura
The sciura style originated in post-war Italy, within the upper-middle class, and represents a woman who moves through the city with confidence, discretion, and a solid cultural authority. Far from fleeting trends, the sciura builds her image from clear and timeless codes.
Impeccability is the starting point. Clean tailoring, refined knitwear, and effortless, always well-chosen denim predominate. Silhouettes are structured but fluid: nothing is exaggerated, and each garment responds to a specific intention. Balance is key, and the style is perceived as natural, even if it is carefully thought out.
In a sciura’s wardrobe, every piece serves a function. Coats occupy a central place and often become the true protagonists of the look. Noble materials such as thick wools, cashmere, or leather are preferred, valued for their quality and durability.
In their daily life, they opt for fine-knit, round-neck cardigans and sweaters, classic skirt suits, and well-cut tailoring. When choosing bags, they prioritize durable materials and timeless design. Accessories also matter, but without excess. Gold jewelry with a history or scarves worn in a seemingly spontaneous way complete a style where elegance is expressed with sobriety and coherence.
