Avant-garde but tied to the origins, exaggerated but unequivocally classy, \u200b\u200biconic but constantly evolving, Fausto Puglisi<\/strong> is the disruptive symbol of contemporary Italian fashion. Born in Sicily, but American by adoption, you will remember Fausto Puglisi for being the excellent designer behind the “one of a kind” looks of some of the world’s greatest artists, just to name a few: Jennifer Lopez<\/strong>, Madonna<\/strong>, Britney Spears<\/strong> and Kylie Minogue<\/strong>. The anti-conventional and sophisticated style of his creations has given life to a perfectly successful union between what is heritage and pure innovation, reaching the goal, perhaps unattainable for many, of putting one’s truest self at the service of a product for everyone. His creations that, leafing through them like a book, tell a beautiful story<\/strong> made of tailoring, ideals, courageous positions and a great hunger to make a world that is still too modern to modernize. We had a chat with Fausto to read at least a few pages of this book, enjoy our interview:<\/strong><\/p>\n

TBS: Before launching your brand, you spent several years in America and today your style is the result of a combination of Italian heritage and American culture, how did you manage to mix these two aspects and what of the one and the other is present in your creations?<\/b><\/p>\n

FAUSTO PUGLISI:<\/b> I believe that Italian fashion, at least until recently, has always been recognized as the ultimate in glamor<\/b>. From Gianni Versace to Gianfranco Ferr\u00e8, from Giorgio Armani himself to Dolce and Gabbana, everything was aimed at iconizing the woman<\/b> and making her absolutely Glamor and beautiful, then times have changed. The American style is Hollywood, and the United States in general, even the most rural places that inspire me a lot like Arizona, are aimed at exasperating<\/b> and making everything extreme for better or for worse. American excess<\/b> has always fascinated me, I always say as a great art historian said, that art is not for good people, for the right-thinking ones. I continue to think that fashion is an artistic message, from which one then draws on to make one’s own interpretation, it is essential that fashion continues to be entertainment<\/b> and evasion. Italy remains the well-made, tailoring<\/b> and culture, the United States remains madness<\/b>.<\/p>\n
