Matteo Tamburini approached his fall collection with a focus on protection. He noted that in today’s world, he wanted to create clothes that feel like a shelter—staying grounded through high-quality craftsmanship and a sense of responsibility. For him, making things by hand is a way of staying present.
His inspiration board was a mix of art and photography, featuring the sculptures of Henry Moore and Marta Pan, the patchwork of Sterling Ruby, and the gritty black-and-white photos of Daido Moriyama. Often, these kinds of artistic references get lost in the final product, but Tamburini managed to keep the connection very clear and sincere.
The influence of Moore’s sculpture showed up in soft leather dresses that wrapped around the body like blankets, leaving the back open for a mix of protection and sex appeal. He also sent out sharp, angular capes made of ponyskin that looked substantial without feeling heavy or bulky.
Moriyama’s snowy, dark photography inspired the textures on leather and shearling dresses, while Ruby’s patchwork style led to graphic, blocky skirts and dresses with clean, structured edges.
The tailoring felt easy and broken-in. Blazers had soft, sloped shoulders and were cinched at the waist with leather cords. A personal touch was added with metal initials of the models on their lapels or wrists. Overall, the collection felt disciplined but sensual—smartly designed without being too stiff or serious.
