Chiara Ferragni, in her role as master of ceremonies, opened the 73rd edition of the Sanremo Festival with a spectacular '

naked dress'

by

Dior

that served to reinforce her feminist message: "If you cover up, you're a nun, if not, a bitch".

With these forceful words, the Italian influencer claimed gender equality in an event that, beyond music, has become a great fashion catwalk and a space in which to be heard.

The piece, a revealing body dress, simulated her naked body wrapped in a delicate nude-colored tulle fabric with beading, an optical illusion inspired by a design by Maria Grazia Chiuri

for

the spring-summer 2018 collection.

Continuing with this ideological line, the Italian influencer and businesswoman has closed the event with

four

impressive

looks

by

Schiaparelli

with which she has sought to give visibility to important issues that affect women, such as motherhood and the right to abortion.

"The Warrior Woman and Mother"

The first of them has been this blue satin dress with golden armor on the chest called

"Warrior Woman and Mother".

The idea came from Ferragni herself and her manager

Fabio Maria Damato from him.

This design was complemented by another equally striking piece:

a golden baby.

With this style, she sought to symbolize the "feminine fight against the guilt of wanting to reconcile everything."

"Being women without having to be considered only as mothers, being only reproductive systems is the choice to fight for every day," explained the Italian influencer.

"Human Rights Garment"

The second look, called

"Human Rights Clothing",

has been a long black velvet dress that has been complemented with a

necklace in the shape of a uterus

made up of different sections of a woman's body that Damato and Ferragni presented to the Schiaparelli designer. .

With this style, he wanted to claim that "reproductive rights are Human Rights. Because access to safe abortion and assisted reproduction is an issue that we must not give up. Because every human being, man or woman, should be able to make decisions freely on her own body. Let's not allow the fights won by our mothers to be fought by our daughters as well," explained the businesswoman.

"Body painting"

With the third outfit, Chiara Ferragni wanted to show "the golden imprint of a woman's body printed in the blue of a column dress".

It was the artist

Yves Klein

who inspired this Schiaparelli design.

"In the work of the French artist, the bodies of women were freed from their immobility as mannequins and called upon to print their forms autonomously on large white canvases to be painted blue. Free your body and do what you want with it because the female body is the greatest masterpiece of creation," said the influencer.

"Masculine Femininity"

The fourth and last look is the one that Ferragni wore to present the award to the winning artist,

Marco Mengoni.

Under the name

"Masculine Femininity",

the Italian claimed that: "Many believe that, for a woman to be taken seriously in certain areas, she must adopt masculine behavior or dress like a man to demonstrate leadership skills. The

black velvet pantsuit, interrupted by a pearl-embroidered corset in the shape of abs, is meant to be a caricature of this sexist stereotype.

A message to men who remain convinced by the narrative that women must "muscle up" to define themselves as worthy of respect.

Don't give up your femininity because someone considers it a weakness, because that's where a woman's strength is."

shameless nudity

The intention, to claim the right of women to dispose of their

bodies

and not be

judged

for it.

"This illusion of

nudity

is a reminder that whoever decides to look or feel sexy is not authorizing anyone to justify the violence of men or to mitigate their faults. This is the body of a woman, that of

Chiara Ferragni,

who wants to give voice to all the women in the world who are subjected to prohibitions and abuse, to all those who are told that their body produces

shame

, that it is only an object and that it incites to sin. This is everyone's body, what a cast the first stone who is free of

sin

!

a feminist message

"A woman has to work twice as much as a man to be taken seriously,"

Chiara Ferragni

defended in her most feminist speech in Sanremo, where she has claimed the right to live freely in her own body.

"Every day you will receive hundreds of messages and comments reminding you that

sexism

is unfortunately normalized.

Challenge them

and do not fear the consequences of being yourself. Being a woman is not a limit. Tell your friends, shout it to everyone and

fight

together every day to change things. I'm trying right now," she concluded excitedly to the loud applause of the audience.

The other dresses with a message by Chiara Ferragni in Sanremo

The

'naked dress'

is not the only dress with a message that the Italian wears at the

Sanremo Festival.

As she recounted on her Instagram profile when kicking off the event, "when we started thinking about the dresses for the two nights, we understood that they didn't just have to be eccentric or pretentiously pretty, but we felt the need to take them to the stage most popular in Italy a social message through fashion".

And for this, the businesswoman has had the support of

Maria Grazia Chiuri,

a Dior designer

,

the creator of customizing looks, such as the first black dress with a down stole that bears the message

"think free" on the back.

Another look, the

dress against hate,

a look in a crude tone with the comments and criticisms that the Italian has received against her appearance, her body and, above all, against her freedom to feel like a woman as well as a mother.

Let us remember, without going any further, the criticism of last December when Ferragni posed on her networks with a set of underwear for which negative comments rained down, such as: "Aren't you married?

"

And yet another dress,

the cage, created with the aim of freeing the new generations from gender stereotypes, in which

women

usually feel caged.

"The dress represents the hope of breaking the conventions imposed by the patriarchy, a hope that we propose to the girls of today,

women of tomorrow",

says Chiara Ferragni.

This last look is also double: her daughter

De ella Vittoria

de ella poses with her in the exact same cage dress.
