The SS17 offering of Self_Made gets us an inside peek into the past of Gianfranco Villegas. Drawing inspiration from the designer’s own memories as a teenager the new collection features designs with a distinctive style reminiscent of that of hip hop artists back in the beginning of the new millennium. Oversized silk and velvet bombers, denim jackets and shorts, hoodies, t-shirts and leather sneakers are only some of the key pieces presented. Similarly to all previous seasons everything was hand-crafted in Tuscany for that perfect merging of Italian tailoring and the brand’s own streetwear-influenced design code.
