Fashion Career Lab

Today, I have the great pleasure to receive Steven PASSARO

Steven is a menswear designer, who after several years in different fashion houses, decided to launch his own brand in the middle of COVID.

He has been showing his collection at Paris Fashion Week for few season now, and he is recognized for his capacity to offer a more sensitive and delicate wardrobe to mens.

His designs are based on the rigorous fundamentals of tailoring, but enhanced by a more modern and genderless approach.

I wanted to talk to Steven, because he has a very strong philosophy about the purpose of his brand and a clear vision of what he desires to bring to menswear.

His idea is encapsulated in this sentence: I quote “Expressing your deepest self; True strength comes from this act of vulnerability”

Through each collection, Steven offers to his client an opportunity for sefl-discovery and self expression.

This conversation with Steven is an opportunity to shine a light on his journey so far and to understand how one can creates a fashion brand from scratch.
