Catalogue published for the exhibition Azzedine Alaia Couture/Sculpture 2015. Azzedine Alaïa?s creations are exhibited at the Galleria Borghese among the masterpieces of great Renaissance masters such as Bernini, Titian and Caravaggio. At the time, Alaia was the last great couturier still working. He entirely drew and cut his own patterns, and conceived his work by working directly on the body. His craftsmanship was undeniable and the attention he paid to seaming and detail was complete and meticulous. `He draws, pushes, pierces, traces, pulls, carves and builds. The construction of a single item is experienced each time as a unique project which is joined to another more global project: the challenge of creating a work of art.
