Attention passengers, the gate for Dsquared2’s stunning SS21 collection is now ready for boarding! Yes, that’s right, the Caten brothers’ latest collection is taking sexy tailoring to the skies. Precise cuts and suave finishes have always been a part of the brand’s DNA, of course, but for SS21, fashion’s most famous duo are imbibing these precise finishes with punky twists and military flair.

Putting their pilot hats on, the two give the aviation industry a much-needed facelift by way of bulky zipped jumpsuits and trousers fastened with utilitarian harnesses. Pants billow and buckle by the ankle in robust canvas or shiny nylon, falling freely from the hip or tightly in a cigarette silhouette, fashioned with oversized cargo pockets and metallic zips for that extra cheeky edge. Mile high club? Here we come.

Vests are laced with soft flowers, or spliced together with bold zebra prints and footie kit stripes, tactile in patent black leather, skin-bearing mesh or embued with general deconstructed wonder. It’s Tom Of Finland meets the ravers of the 90s – the Acid House and goth kind.

As for the girls, the Catens have gone all out with their bleached-out baggy denim offerings, trimmed with suggestive lace at the waistline or encased in glossy transparent PVC. Slip dresses in vivacious yellow follow suit, with parachute leg trousers in crisp camel hues and a-line skirts, which find themselves slit at the top of the thigh. It’s the Dsquared2 military video vixen’s world, after all, we’re just living in it!
