Milan: fashion - people - design - art - parties - food and more...



Ter et Bantine 2012 Summer collection.  The Ter et Bantine 2012 Summer collection, is a dialogue between opposites and the integration which hinges upon the evocative male and female forms. The female imaginary is suggested by the semi-couture shapes of the 1950s.

Note: the day-glo shoe/sandals, the semi-neutral color palette and the simplicity of the clothes hanging.

Ter et Bantine. No frills style enhances the fundamental fashion themes, proportions, silhouettes and volumes. Dresses become subtle yet effective shells crafted with the utmost simplicity, thanks to thick cottons in un-ordinary blends.


Ter et Bantine – What we drank.  Pear sorbet with vodka and a sugared violet on top was most refreshing.
