Under the visionary leadership of twin brothers Dean and Dan Caten, Dsquared2 has firmly reestablished its dominant presence in the fashion sphere. Truth be told, they never truly disappeared from the spotlight. In an industry where trends come and go, Dsquared2 has maintained an unwavering allure.


Reviving the spirit of indie sleaze that defined their iconic 2003 and 2004 collections, DSQUARED2's SS24 showcase at Milan Fashion Week left an indelible imprint on the industry, offering a tantalizing glimpse into the future of fashion. The recent collection from Dsquared2 pays homage to their influential past, ingeniously reinterpreting and reimagining elements that propelled them to the forefront of the fashion world. By infusing their signature designs with a fresh perspective and pushing boundaries, the Catens have crafted audacious and provocative creations.





The inclusion of indie sleaze elements in DSquared2's SS24 collection and previous FW23 collection, signals the full revival of this distinctive subculture within the fashion industry, leaving no doubt that indie sleaze is set to make a triumphant comeback.


Among the standout ensembles in Dsquared2's reinvigorated collection is the inclusion of Converse leggings. Showcasing the iconic Converse logo, these leggings boldly evoke the brand's collaboration with the renowned sneaker giant in the early 2000s. By seamlessly integrating this iconic footwear element into its designs, Dsquared2 pays homage to its storied history while breathing new life into beloved motifs. This captivating fusion of the past and the present creates a collection that mesmerizes both industry insiders and fashion enthusiasts alike.

What sets this collection apart is its invigorating revitalization of fashion, a much-needed breath of fresh air. Astonishingly, Dsquared2 accomplished this feat without undergoing a complete rebranding. Instead, the design duo, who first debuted on the women's runway two decades ago, magnified their signature style to unprecedented levels of brilliance. The resounding impact of their message is resolute and unequivocal, leaving no space for doubt.


Dsquared2's resurgence to prominence stands as a testament to their relentless pursuit of pushing boundaries. In a world that often takes itself too seriously, Dsquared2's bold and playful spirit, in my personal opinion, offers a breath of fresh air. Dsquared2 commands attention, leaving a lasting impression that resonates loudly and clearly across the fashion landscape.

The Catens have once again proven their ability to captivate the fashion industry.
