Sunnei<br />
This menswear brand, designed by Loris<br />
Messina and Simon Rizzo, takes traditional<br />
styles and tweaks them, giving them that<br />
famously Italian sprezzatura of cool.<br />
“They’re very young,” says Flaccavento of<br />
the pair of designers, “and they’re very<br />
playful. They use uniforms and pajamas,<br />
or sports inspirations, but twisted– highly<br />
evolved streetwear that’s not too fashiony,<br />
but very fun and very intelligent.”<br />

Vernissage<br />
Designed by Ilenia Corti and Matteo Mena,<br />
this label is not afraid to take something<br />
unappealing (a moth, for example) to<br />
make a statement necklace. “Vernissage<br />
uses great iconography– it’s baroque and<br />
dark, a bit occult, a bit macabre even, but<br />
done in a way that young people can wear,”<br />
says Flaccavento. “These aren’t jewels for<br />
a grandma, plus there’s real jewelry craft<br />
behind it.”<br />
