Aretha Franklin wearing Marina Rinaldi on the “Live With Regis and Kelly” Show
Guest star on New York’s tv show “Live With Regis and Kelly”, the undisputed soul queen Aretha Franklin gave the audience a rousing performance.
Her performance was even more special thanks to the white tuxedo designed by Marina Rinaldi which was embellished with turquoise accessories.
A trouser suit with prominent lapels and jewel button closing at the waist.
An aggressive and summery look worthy of the winner of 21 Grammy Awards and the first woman to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Aretha Franklin performed live during the most loved show on America’s ABC Network by singing a wonderful hit taken from her latest album “A woman falling out of love”.
The casual elegance of the new metal-coloured thongs.

At long last the sun brightens up our cities and the desire comes back to give our feet, confined to warm and snug winter shoes, that well deserved freedom which has been denied for so many months.
Comfortable of course, like Marina Rinaldi boots that were immensely successful, but don’t you fancy wearing a nice pair of thongs this summer?
If we rediscover in clothes the light fabric and the beauty of colour, we can do the same with shoes, in particular with thongs, light and comfortable but above all, colourful!
Designed to be worn on the beach and even in the city, Marina Rinaldi has made this a must-have for the season. Alongside the classic ones, this year a new model with a romantic allure is being launched; it comes in many metal colours like copper, gold, silver, metallic pink and blue.
Quite original and very feminine!

A perfect match with patterned dresses or just plain coloured ones to add that extra sparkle to the simplest outfit, the thongs are topped by a soft rose, a detail that will be appreciated by the most romantic as well as the real “fashionistas” who are always looking for something particular to wear, not content with the usual thongs, but always demanding a little more from fashion.
Perfect for the city, but also for an aperitif with friends by the sea, they have a simple and elegant design and are ideal for every fashion lover. When it comes to Marina Rinaldi, comfort of course is always first place.

For a long hot summer, full of colour, passion and fun!
Melissa McCarthy star of the WIF wearing Marina Rinaldi

Melissa McCarthy wearing Marina Rinaldi
For years she portrayed Sookie in the TV series “Gilmore Girls”, the best friend and chef that everyone would love to have, and in August we’ll be seeing her on the big screen in the hilarious comedy “Bridesmaids”.
It was Melissa McCarthy’s turn, with her contagious smile and flow of energy, to do the honours in Los Angeles’ Beverly Hilton Hotel ballroom during the prestigious Women in Film Crystal + Lucy Awards, an award that goes to actresses, producers and directors that have made a mark in the world of films and entertainment.
For such an important evening, just around the corner from Sunset boulevard, Melissa’s look was placed in the capable hands of Marina Rinaldi: the couture elegance of a two-tone black&white tunic with jewel detailing (adding a sophisticated sparkle in the night light) and contrasting edges, black straight-legged trousers and sandals covered in rhinestones.

Bon chic bon genre: the triumph of pastel colours

Marina Rinaldi - Cerimony Dress
The symbol of contemporary urban femininity, pastel colours pleasantly enhance any look with a touch of soft, very sophisticate light.
In particular, pink for dresses and shirts with a flowing line brings new luminosity to the skin, enhanced even more by strong accessories which add more rhythm to the bon chic bon genre air these colour shades have always had in their DNA.
Pastel colours are in fact neutral shades par excellence, along with grey and white. The best in elegance, very ladylike and sophisticated, is to wear them together, in refined outfits which have an air of timeless elegance.

In the new MR Voyage collection, powder pink, pink, pearl grey and delicate shades of khaki interpret the fresh, radiant mood to be toned down with a strong touch, found in the new Marina Rinaldi croc-print calfskin clutch bags or the new suede sandals or leather sandals with wedge heel and ankle straps for a romantic yet absolutely up to date look!
Cardigans, jackets and trousers in champagne effect silk, asymmetric dresses and ethereal and sophisticated trouser suits in which pink and powder tones blend with the allure of the palest wisteria to offer sublime, almost pictorial results.

Pastel Colour Clothes - Marina Rinaldi
In the new Marina Rinaldi collection, half-shades stop being half and take a lead role: no longer pale versions of stronger colours, but unique and totally original shades which bring out the natural beauty of every woman with class.
