STEVEN PASSARO

Visionary, technical, and cerebral, 30-year-old designer Steven Passaro describes his driving force as a love of complexity. A graduate of the École Duperré, Passaro completed his Master’s degree in Menswear Fashion at the London College of Fashion before launching his eponymous brand in October 2019. As the first lockdown was announced in France in March 2020, the designer rushed to Paris’ Sentier neighborhood to buy fabrics, and subsequently locked himself in his home for two and a half months to work on his first collection (as well as dive into 3-D fashion design software).the clothes are created from European deadstock fabrics and manufactured in Paris, and, for Passaro, construction of the garment is essential—resulting in refined collections with a subtle English-tailoring inspiration.
