The American dream of made-in-Italy brands

It always makes us a little happy when we see an Italian garment or accessory on big Hollywood stars. We may even know the designer who created it well because he is from our country or city. And we always think of their small or big success when we see, for example, Jenna Ortega, Jennifer Lopez or Dua Lipa with a carefully crafted creation as made-in-Italy excellence. So we at Nss G-Club thought we'd tell you the stories behind these brands, which if you do not already know, you should follow immediately. From jewellery to jeans to coats and shoes: Here's the Italian dream that will please overseas too.

Shaft Jeans

A few days ago, all the fans of Wednesday Addams were amazed to see how the actress who gives her face, Jenna Ortega, has completely changed her look. In the commercial for Saturday Night Live, in which she was a guest, the actress showed herself in the look of the 1970s, and especially colourful compared to her standards. A red waistcoat with a white shirt and contrasting tie underneath, paired with a pair of flared jeans. The trousers are by Shaft Jeans, a name you may already associate with Maneskin. The historic Florentine brand of premium denim from Italy, run by the Palchetti Tosi twins, has always celebrated music and some pieces from the archive are often worn by international singers, from the rising Suki Waterhouse to Los Angeles band Palaye Royale. Perfect for those who feel like frontmen in their everyday lives too.

Dans Les Rue

The brand was born in 2018 from Martina Mancini's idea to combine glam with life on the street. And soon overseas success sets in. Dua Lipa often wears her creations, and she must also have recommended them to her French colleague Angèle, who was also convinced by the mix of sparkling crystals and enamel in neon colours. After all, her message is clear: these jewels are a symbol of brotherhood that can be worn multiple times and colourfully, even in combination with your boyfriend.

Federica Tosi

 

Born in 2016 from the brand's namesake's idea to create urban, smart yet chic garments together. Garments designed for women with strong and dynamic personalities, loved, unsurprisingly, by Jennifer Lopez and Gisele Bundchen as well as a large Italian parterre. And as well as the dresses and coats made in Italy, there is also gold and eye-catching jewellery, most recently spotted on Rita Ora's neck and earlobes.

The precious jewellery of the Milanese designer, who decided in 2014 to rid her brand of the impurities of Japanese culture, is just as pop. Dua Lipa and Miley Cyrus chose her creations to add a poppy touch to their looks on stage and in video clips. Its kawaii universe, made of enamelled yellow gold and precious stones, has also won over models like Bella Hadid and big stars like Katy Perry. No wonder they like them - they are accessories that give just the right touch of light-heartedness.

Blazé Milan

A story that grew out of a meeting in the newsroom. Corrada Rodriguez D'Acri, Delfina Pinardi and Sole Torlonia share a passion for styling and Made in Italy. Three women who have fused their three distinct personalities into the perfect tailored blazer that reinvents itself season after season without losing its iconic aesthetic. Among the many stars they dress, the latest fans are Jessica Alba, Jessica Chastain and Sofia Boutella.

Giada and Paolo Forte start with a motto: slow and steady gets you far. And so it has been with the brand they founded, which focuses entirely on hyper-feminine clothing made from the finest raw materials. A sophisticated blend of retro inspirations that range from the 1920s to the 1950s. The dress the world fell in love with is that of Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu, the Sylvie of Emily in Paris, all pleats and dazzling details. And it has also conquered Hollywood, worn by JLo and Chrissy Teigen.
