Dsquared2

Canadian twin brothers from Willowdale Ontario, Dean and Dan Caten have operated in the international fashion business since 1984. They moved to New York City on 1983 to attend the Parson's School of Design and on 1991 came to Italy where, on 1994, after many collaborations with the most important fashion houses, they had their first men's collection show, marking the first in a long succession of runway extravaganzas that were to capture the attention of journalists and buyers for their perfect combination of fashion, music and theater.

The intelligent mix of irreverent Canadian wit and refined Italian tailoring, together with attention to detail are the foundation of today's Dsquared2 philosophy, which has given life to a unique concept of alternative luxury. Recently, Dsquared2 collections have conquered a wider audience and, owing to their natural stylistic maturity, have become more chic and sophisticated while maintaining those sexy and provocative traits so embedded in their creative roots. This evolution is also due to the continuous international inspiration received by Dean and Dan, who, while dividing their life and work between Milan and London, create their collections in Italy: "Born in Canada, living in London, made in Italy".

In 2003, Dsquared2 received the "La Kore" award, considered the "Oscar" of the Italian fashion world, as the Most Original Designers. Then in October of 2003 Dean and Dan Caten were named "Men of the Year" by GQ Magazine USA as the Best Breakthrough Design Team. In 2006, competing among a slate of fashion designers renown for originality, Dean and Dan won the prestigious Spanish award "Aguja de Oro" ("Golden Needle"); for the occasion, the brothers designed an outfit that will remain on display at the Museo del Traje in Madrid.
