"Romeo Gigli, the Italian designer who defined the softer and poetic side of the brash 1980s, is back. But not under his own name, which no longer belongs to him, but a combination of words that the cognoscenti will recognize immediately: io ipse idem"

I have a couple of pieces from Romeo Gigli from the 90’s that I still wear today.He has a an aesthetic that is timeless and strives to not focus on a "total look" to use his own words:
"I have never created for ’someone’ in particular, always for ‘anyone’ willing to take a journey of the imagination made up of dissonant harmonies, freedom and sharing," said the designer in the statement announcing the new line.
