Schiaparelli’s Fall 2025 couture show ended with a visceral vision: a crimson satin gown featuring a sculpted anatomical torso and a mechanical, beating heart.
Designed by Daniel Roseberry, the dress pays tribute to Salvador Dalí’s 1953 “The Royal Heart” brooch famed for its rubies and lifelike throb.
In Roseberry’s reimagining, the heart is encrusted with scarlet rhinestones and visibly pulsates at the back of the model’s neck.
Beneath it, a sculpted reverse torso complete with breasts, ribcage, and navel transforms the back of the gown into a surreal anatomical illusion. From the front, the model appears poised and regal; from behind, she becomes a disjointed figure of dual anatomy.
This centerpiece marked a tonal climax in a collection defined by stark contrasts.
Roseberry’s work this season channels Schiaparelli’s surrealist DNA with renewed emotional charge. The beating heart dress doesn’t merely reference art history it animates it.
The result is couture that dares to feel, beating in time with fashion’s love for drama, craftsmanship, and conceptual boldness.
