Ideas from Massimo Osti
Massimo Osti's designs have such a cult influence in the European fashion world that, this year, they've been meticulously catalogued in a massive 412-page tome, Ideas From Massimo Osti, edited by his wife, Daniela Facchinato, and published by Diamiani. Osti's work is so well regarded that, in an effusive poetic ramble of a preface from denim legend Francois Girbaud, he elicits odes like this: "I was often so jealous, challenged by your way of looking at things, of transforming, of discovering, of becoming ever more skilled. You did everything well. Damn you Massimo! I was shocked! Moved." (Amber BravoFader Magazine2013-04-01)
