When sartorial and design coexist in a balance of fabrics and shapes, creating a precise style. Victorvictoria is all this, and it is also a family-run business that has been handing over from the late eighties, a fashion idea in which male and female aesthetics combine while remaining well identifiable. With this interview, the team, based in Scorzé, in the province of Venice, introduces brand evolution and projects for the future.
Victorvictoria is a brand that, since its inception, has undergone many innovations. What are the salient features intact?
Victorvictoria was born in the early ninties during the period of “aesthetic minimalism”: it was subtracted after the glamor that characterized the aesthetic of the eighties. From men’s wardrobes were stolen garments that went into the female (coats, jackets, pants and shirts) creating a new androgynous look. This is how we are doing today, keeping in mind what has changed the world and, consequently, fashion. There remains the will to create high quality timeless garments at the beginning, working on men’s and women’s clothing icons.
A boon of your reality is to be a family-run business. How do you manage your season-by-season jobs?
In Ca’ Da Mosto (Tegon’s family business wich the brand belongs, ndr), the three sons of Sergio Tegon each have a specific role and collaborate synergistically in the development of the Victorvictoria business.
Victorvictoria’s recent history has lived the golden age of fashion. How much about that world still live today and what has changed?
“Style lives of thinking, styling lives of stunts”. Today there is less style and the market looks and absorbs all that looks quickly stylistically new. Victorvictoria is aimed at those looking for a collection with a content design with accurate and quality clothes, destined to become fundamental in the male and female wardrobe.
You define the aesthetic mark of the brand as “imperfect parallelism” between men’s and women’s clothing What do you mean exactly?
Both male and female play a different point of view but the same attitude to functionality and good taste, looking at the same heads as in a mirror, reflecting the same aptitude but from different formal perspectives, combined with sophisticated parallelism. Men’s and women’s clothing are similar but never the same.
What are the next steps for the brand?
We will present in June the spring-summer 2018 collection at the Milan Men’s Fashion Week.
