Magliano SS23 Blurs the Line
Magliano's blurring of the line between maker and wearer extends beyond casting to the construction of the garments themselves. The collection utlilizes intentional contrasts to challenge the restrictive expectations of work environments.
As if to remedy the jaded culture of a blue-collar environment, Magliano builds billowing pockets into suit trousers, layers organza vests over dull dress shirts, and marries overisized suits with silk pajamas and polo shirts with stained jeans. He breathes a realism into each garment that highlights his innovative take on work attire. By looking past the worker’s utility to search for hidden or lost dreams, we come face to face with their humanity.
