If Benjamin Huseby and Serhat Isik’s first collection at Trussardi took a quantum leap into the future – all vampish minidresses, coat-gown hybrids, and hourglass piuminos – then SS23 tugged on the umbilical cord, bringing their vision closer in line with the DNA of the brand. It was about establishing a contemporary Milanese wardrobe, the duo explained in their show notes, inviting show-goers into the hallways of the 17th century Palazzo Clerici, where gilded interiors and clouded mirrors proved a symbolic backdrop for a new kind of bourgeoisie.
