MILANO MODA DONNA | The Romantic Renaissance. GABRIELE COLANGELO

Gabriele Colangelo was born in Milan on February 27, 1975. His family holds a traditional atelier where furs gain exclusive facet. He has grown up surrounded by selected items and the tradition of excellence, learning the expression of grace and craftsmanship.

When he took part in to a competition organized by the Italian National Chamber of Fashion, Gabriele won a scholarship as Fashion Stylist. He has run numerous and relevant experiences with Versace, designing Versace Jeans for Women, and Rober to Cavalli on Just Cavalli label. Following those cooperations he took the role of Artistic Direc tor for Amuleti J, part of the Mariella Burani Fashion Group.

Early in 2008, he launched his own label: Gabriele Colangelo. He staged a capsule collection to be recognized for timeless, elegance and the capacity to review furs and embroidery concepts with innovative thought.
The same year the designer won the international contest “Who is on next?”, organized by Alta Roma and Vogue Italia to launch new promising talents in fashion. Designer’s collections entirely reinvented the concept of luxury and grace. His attention to details investigated new techniques and fabrics, with strong artistic contents, craftsmanship and international appeal.

A modern, harmonic and lively architecture in clothing is the visible sign of Gabriele Colangelo authentic success in meeting women’s need to express their own personality, culture and strength. It’s a sort of ethereal equilibrium in aesthetics, suggested by the underst anding of a chromatic language, which is not immediate in perception, but revealed from time to time in to attention to details.
