Maurizio Galante: Extraordinary Stories in Fashion

The name Maurizio Galante is synonymous with haute couture. Trained as an architect, the Italian-born designer has been mesmerising the fashion world since the late 1980s. His designs, worn by architect Zaha Hadid, artist Erina Matsui and actresses Isabella Ferrari and Jeanne Moreau, elevate clothing to the status of fine art. But rather than canvas, Galante transforms his vision into sculptural and wearable fantasies.

Unlike many couturiers who start a collection with a theme or country of inspiration, Galante presents his collections, once a year in Paris, as being part of the ‘same story’. “Through my work, I’m telling people who I am. My designs convey my vision, emotions and pleasures,” says Galante, who can create hundreds of folds in the one garment. Couture is one of the most, if not the most labour intensive processes. “The most difficult aspect of the process is knowing where to stop, in order to avoid losing the sense of perfection,” says Galante.
