Costume National - Fall/Winter 2002

Ennio Capasa of Costume National drew on the underground vibe of the early 90s, giving his glamourous clothes a punk influence. Clothes fit for the well-bred bad girl.

Costume National - Spring/Summer 2002

He's not a household name but his label is. Italy's Ennio Capasa started Costume National in 1987. Since then, it has grown from a women's line to include a men's wear line, fragrances, shoes, and stores around the world. This season, Costume National's normally slim silhouette is being pumped up with a little volume ñ could it be the influence of Ennio's former boss, Yohji Yamamoto, coming through?
