The Dsquared2 Summer Lovers capsule collection draws on the sun-drenched nostalgia of its namesake film, a 1982 passionate romance set against the backdrop of sun-drenched Greek islands. Dean and Dan Caten have translated the film’s themes of freedom and desire into a range of breezy separates and denim.
Lightweight fabrics dominate the collection, which is designed to move from the shoreline to city streets without losing its effortless appeal. Retro touches nod to the era of the movie, but the cuts remain firmly contemporary.
Silhouettes remain deliberately relaxed throughout the Dsquared2 Summer Lovers range, with loose-fitting garments that allow for movement and comfort in warm weather.
Retro-inspired details appear throughout the pieces, creating a cohesive visual language that references the collection’s cinematic origins without feeling costume-like.
The color palette deserves special mention – it effectively translates visual elements associated with summer (sunshine, sand textures and heat) into wearable garments. From swimwear to evening options, the collection offers a variety of seasonal dressing options.
The Dsquared2 Summer Lovers capsule is available online at dsquared2.com and in select stores worldwide.
