Jeremy Scott for Moschino, Spring/Summer 2016 ready-to-wear collection.
Piero, what is joy?
It is what fills your heart and gives you the will to live more intensely! For me, it is linked to creating: to that magical moment when the conceptualized work appears, when one manages to decipher the artist’s approach, where dreams touch reality.
Is there joy on the fashion runways?
Of course. discovering several months of work by a designer, unfolding and understanding their approach, gaining a sense of entering their thought process, is all truly exhilarating!
Are certain designers more joyful than others?
Yes, some work with quite somber tones, others have an optimistic temperament. Moschino handles irony brilliantly. In their most recent collections, Versace had fun playing with the image of rock stars. Jean Paul Gaultier and Vivienne Westwood are steeped in humor and derision. Their creations are manifestos of ideas and concentrates of daring.
