Aspesi's functional transversality
Fundamentals is the brand's new chapter
October 19th, 2022
Aspesi's aesthetic imagery has always leveraged the concept of functionality. Its history found in the down jacket, a garment until then considered as something purely technical, a creative experiment with which the brand rewrote the rules of outerwear. The idea came from a chat between Alberto Aspesi and Franco Moschino, who then gave the jacket its name. Outerwear thus became an integral part of the brand's aesthetic codes committed to the constant search for innovative and unexpected materials.
Pragmatism, wearability, and essence still constitute the cornerstones of Aspesi's signature narrative. These are presented according to a lexicon composed of clothing archetypes conceived as single products that offer the wearer the tools to create his or her own personal language. Their combination gives rise to functional and timeless uniforms that take the name Fundamentals: Pinguino, Gabetta, Bear, Magenta, Moschino, Down Jacket, and Feather Vest are technical outerwear whose transversality allows them to transcend the concepts of gender, generation, and fit. Free from restrictions and binding patterns, Fundamentals overturn the concept of custom by extending the transversality of generations, genders and fits to infinity.
