National Costume

Ennio Capasa, a multidisciplinary Italian designer, was Yohji Yamamoto's assistant in Japan. It was in 1987 that he founded his Couture House Costume National with his brother. The name of the brand comes from a book of French uniforms. His creations fit into a global style rich in personal, historical and aesthetic influences. There is no Costume National fashion, but an assertive, timeless Style, beyond ephemeral trends. A real quest for the essential. This style is the fusion between a precursor urban style and a refined elegance "Underground Chic".
