Maurizio Galante

Italian designer Maurizio Galante was born in 1963 in Latina. Active in fashion for over 30 years, he designs creations that have become contemporary icons - sculptural objects intended to spark discussion and arouse emotion. Galanti first studied architecture, later graduating from the Costume and Fashion Academy in Rome. These two aspects of his education are ever-present in his work, allowing him to create an unprecedented mix of different disciplines. In 1987, he had the opportunity to present his ready-to-wear collections in Milan and, since 1991, in Paris, where he resides permanently. Galante designed costumes for opera performances in collaboration with prominent international directors and leading institutions like the Piccolo Teatro in Milan, the Rome Opera and the Spoleto Festival.
