reblog: June 19, 2018. DSQUARED2. SPRING 2019 MEN'S - MILAN

 


"...Catenacci's Spring 2019 collection has maintained the 2017 and 2018 runway trends of militaristic, mountaineering and post dystopian industrial styles.  With tinges of 1980s glamor, which also was noted from my reviews, on many of the shows in the last two years.  But, once again, the mentioned styles that seem to be evolving into a present trend (at least on the runway) are popular culture ideas and the reality that our world is in a tipping point flux.  Much like a science fiction dystopic drama.  


Rugged industrial and military styles (John Mollo's re: Alien 1978 costume designer influences are very evident with this collection).  Built up cities, combat inspired and sex glamor of a world that has final collapsed into a dystopic existence.  The future has been dismantled and the past erased.  Humanity in a renewed perspective has to rebuild from their dependency on digital technologies to a more retrofitted vision of a future that never was.  To become one within the now.  Will we see tomorrow?  

But, this ain't no movie or script, as it may have already happened..."
