Dsquared2 Resort 2027 Blends Italian Summer with Canadian Edge

other · 2026-05-26

Dean and Dan Caten presented their Dsquared2 Resort 2027 collection, reimagining an Italian summer through a Canadian lens. The collection juxtaposes high and low cultural references, featuring '80s tailoring with cowboy attitude, denim with bouclé linings, and hybrid garments like double-sleeved shirts and skirts made from MA-1 bomber jacket components. Men's wear opened with party-ready tuxedos and sequined denim, followed by louche gray and beige suits. Women's highlights included ripped jeans revealing bouclé, thin knitwear with collegiate stripes, and lace-trimmed silk skirts with ironic Italian phrases. Accessories introduced the Roxy Bag with multiple belts, Cosmo-heeled sandals inspired by cocktail glass stems, and baseball-cap-fastening mules. Denim remains central, with strategic rips and hybrid details throughout.
