Dolce Far Niente — the Poelle summer collection

The sweetness of doing nothing

Dolce far niente is an Italian expression for leisurely rest: slowing down to enjoy every moment, time for yourself, the Italian art of living.

This is the summer line of Poelle. On the moodboard of creative director Pavlo Popko and stylist Olesia Darii were a painting by Botticelli and films by Fellini and Guadagnino.

Simple shapes with an unexpected turn, and the memory of summer holidays: Dolce Far Niente brings together fashion, art and a love of life.

What is in the collection

Francesca is a soft triangle in open-weave cotton with a round cut-out for a handle, 40 × 38 × 18.5 cm (15.7 × 15 × 7.3 in).
