Dsquared2: Born in Canada, Made in Italy | Fashion & Beauty Source

Born in Canada, Made in Italy

Submitted by Mimi on Sunday, 8 February 200910 Comments

I’m sure many of you are familiar with world famous fashion label Dsquared2. But did you also know that the talented fashion designers Dan and Dean are from Canada? In 1991, the brothers moved to Milan with a dream of starting their own fashion label. They were faced with rejection and hardships in the beginning; nevertheless the brothers never gave up the dream. Little by little, they established connections in the fashion industry and acquired some valuable experience needed to succeed as designers. By 1994, Dsquared2 finally debuted their much anticipated Men’s Collection and in 2003, women’s collection was launched.

Today, they are world known fashion designers whose clothes are worn by the rich and famous, such as Madonna, Rihanna, Eve, and Anne Hathaway. Their stores are scattered in all the hot fashion spots of the world.

The Spring Collection is both sexy and fun, inspired by the 70’s. I fell in love with all the denim pieces, the metallic jacket that has parts of silver, gold and bronze and the fitted jackets.

Their Men’s collection is my favourite. A fine tailored cut, just the way I like it. The Women’s line has a very luxurious look to it… very sexy.

Thanks for the optimism and help. I hope something right does come along my way. Sent my Resume out to just about everywhere. Now the only question left open is, “are they hiring?”

Help.
