FALL WINTER 2023/24
The household is the place we share with those who matter, and where we keep things that, to us, matter.This season Giuliano Calza brings the GCDS action home. Literally, in his household, where Kittho the cat reigns supreme.
It’s Kittho himself who presides over the catwalk, blown up to gigantic proportions thanks to the artistry of Carnevale di Viareggio masters Fratelli Cinquini Scenografie - another celebration of Made in Italy craft and skills.The house is the frame and the inspiration: à la GCDS, but of course. Giuliano Calza explores the obsessions and the proclivities that make him creatively thick: the very bourgeois tweeds of the jackets ladies wear; the pinstripes gentlemen depend on; the worn out leathers of their rebel offsprings; the velvets of sofas and the tufty textures of bath mats. The collection relies on the face off of the sweet and the darkly seductive, with accessories blowing the claws of domestic felines to human proportions, turning them into sensual weapons.The feeling of intimacy allows for a new outlook on GCDS. The one Kittho probably has, through his yellow eyes.
