Rare "Maison Moschino" bag by Franco Moschino
Moschino at its best - Made in Italy -1990'
Rare mint condition.
Franco Moschino reached the peak of Italian fashion by subverting all the rules, from style to advertising, from fashion shows to irony with which he spoke of his own profession. The beginnings as an illustrator, then Versace and Cadette, a historic Italian company in which Moschino refined his stylistic language. His label debuted in 1983 and makes its way to blows of irreverent and unpredictable looks, classic shapes, perfect cuts and seductive details, able to enhance female beauty.
“There is no freedom without chaos – he said – the Moschino concept consists in leaving the total freedom of choice for those who wish to dress”.
In 1983 the Moschino Couture was born, a forge of unusual clothes, inspired initially by the creativity of Jean-Paul Gaultier. The fashion of Franco Moschino is a mix of elegant paradoxes, which reveal great technical expertise and insight into the choice of raw materials.
At the base of its collections there are also the protest, the denunciation of the excesses of the fashion system and of the “image society” of the 80s. The taste for provocation leads him to revisit, with an ironic and pop style, part of the repertoire aesthetic of the twentieth century, starting with the suits of Chanel, with pinwheels instead of buttons, skirts made of ties and dresses with the mantra “no stress no dress”.
