For the Spring/Summer 2011 accessories collection, Sergio Rossi's Creative Director, Francesco Russo became inspired by strong body armour, thus creating luxurious, powerful designs perfect for an Amazonian princess. The designer payed tribute to the likes of François-Xavier and Claude Lalanne, and used traditional methods to compose these artistic pieces of body armour. Composed with hammered brass and finished with brown luggage leather, this 'Idol' collection gives an age-old craft a new spin, making for designs with a seductive, powerful feel and a strong aesthetic. Below is a look at some of the items available - all of which has hit stores this February - now you can be your own knight in shining armour! Images courtesy of Vogue.
