In this trespass between tradition and innovation, we present 12 items that capture the essence of Halloween

Curated by DOMENICO COSTANTNI

The fateful night that separates us from All Saints’ Day is approaching with great stride. In fashion and design, the fascinating iconography of Halloween has, of course, been taken up and reworked in all sorts of ways, even leading it to be untethered from the occasion itself and sublimated into something different.
In this trespass between tradition and innovation, we present 12 items that capture the essence of Halloween. Each item is a symphony of shapes, colors and materials that convey an essence of mystery, embracing darkness and ambiguity as pillars of inspiration. From bags that whisper secrets on moonless nights to shoes that channel the energy of creatures of darkness, this selection is an ode to audacity and the art of turning the unexplored into reality.
The designers who forged these creations have redeemed themselves as artists, defying convention to offer a fashion and design experience that goes far beyond dressing. Here, fashion is a rebellion against the ordinary, a celebration of the unusual and provocative.
