Moschino is returning to Italy to showcase its spring-summer 2016 menswear collection. After showing creative director Jeremy Scott’s debut collections during London Collections: Men, Moschino will be the guest brand at the latest edition of Pitti Uomo in June. Pitti Immagine chief executive officer Raffaello Napoleone shared with WWD, “In Jeremy Scott’s collections, we see the humor, the irreverence, the tendency to explode myths, and the manipulation of pop iconography — all that we knew to be part of Franco Moschino’s spirit and designs.” Napoleone continues, “There is also lots of originality in his work — he seems to have a sort of special-sensor focused on our times — in the way he combines fabrics and materials, especially the finest types, because his designs are luxurious. And that is the reason behind our invitation.”
