Meet Italian designer Gaetano Guastella - A luxurious genderneutral brand taking over the world
“ [...] you are who you are, even though the price you pay for it is being dis-invited from the rest of the world.”
Quote by: Pose, Original Netflix Series, Season 1, Episode 2.
The luxury genderneutral brand Gaetano Guastella is for
diversity and was born from diversity.
We promote and instigate beauty in its various forms,
origins and bumps, whether you are your-
self, a man, a woman or both. You are automatically
different, this is your beauty, your strength,
the one that raises you from the greyness of this world,
which is often too hard, sexist and discrim-
inatory. Who wears Gaetano Guastella becomes a “walking
rainbow”, just like its own Designer,
bearer of strong and essential values, lover of beauty, joy,
passion and an innate and spasmodic
desire to live!
Gaetano Guastella, with his slogan Let Me Wear Your Skin
speaks of all this and refers to the
essence of every garment or accessory that is conceived,
studied and created by this sparkling
mind. Therefore, automatically who wears a Gaetano Guastella
product wears Gaetano and em-
braces his vision of a world made of love, irony, and so
much joy and passion.
The clothes are also intentionally created with an oversize
style that allows a vast number of sizes
and body structure to be worn without problems, taking on a
different look based on the person,
becoming part of it and differentiating it, making it
unique.

As soon as he graduated, he embarked on an adventure and
fulfilled his dream of living and
experiencing himself and his creativity in the city of
London where he lived for 6 years. In this
splendid and violent city begins a long career path and
studies in the field. He was accepted to
study Fashion Design at the prestigious London College of Fashion
- University of the Arts Lon-
don, where he graduated.
During his time at university, he began to pursue a career
in the fashion industry that allowed him
to get to know the fashion industry in the best possible
way. At the beginning, in fact, he worked
as a salesman for renowned luxury brands (Fendi, Burberry
and Hugo Boss) and then moved to
the High Street retail (for Monsoon & Accessorise).
In the meantime he meets a tutor who has always worked for
London Fashion Week in the Fashion
Scout company and manages to enter that circle, becoming
immediately after his first season in
2014, manager and director of Backstage, a role he continued
until his return to Italy in 2018.
Moreover, in the years between 2014 and 2018 he also
undertakes other different roads in the
sector, always for stubbornness and dedication. In fact,
maneuvering himself with university
schedules, he also works as Junior Fashion Designer for
Evans within the Arcadia group and then
as Pattern Digitiser for the big fashion company Jon Adam
Fashion Group.
