TAILOR Newsletter Returns: Fashion, Art, and Culture Intersect

publication · 2026-04-26

The TAILOR newsletter, produced by Artribune and curated by Margherita Cuccia and Giulio Solfrizzi, returns on February 8, 2026. The new issue features an Ipse Dixit segment dedicated to emerging designer Giovanni Gerosa, founder of the brand GIO. Born in 1996 and raised between Lecco and Milan, Gerosa develops a personal language where knitwear becomes a space for experimentation and color an emotional tool. His Capitolo VII is described as more manifesto than collection, presenting fashion as a process of self-construction. The issue also explores a broader transformation in contemporary fashion: the reevaluation of imperfection. From Prada Fall/Winter 2026 runway to deliberately worn bags by Gucci and Balenciaga, wear and tear enters the lexicon of luxury as a narrative element and trace of time. Aesthetic trends like the 'Messy Girl Aesthetic' reject order as the only code, while second-hand redefines desire and durability. The newsletter is published biweekly (every other Sunday) and offers updates on international trends, sustainability reflections, fashion week readings, and insights on exhibitions, education, and career paths. Subscription is free.
