Domenico Orefice AW26: A Cult-Fueled Milan Debut

Domenico Orefice made his Milan runway debut with a collection already surrounded by cult energy. The Neapolitan designer, based between Tuscany and underground club culture, delivered a dark, magnetic wardrobe aimed at night creatures and modern romantics.

Oversized funnel-neck jackets, cape-like flight bombers, distressed leather, trompe-l’oeil shirting, and piratical boots built a language of theatrical rebellion.

Presented at the Carla Sozzani Foundation, the show confirmed Orefice’s growing international momentum, already recognized by Dover Street Market, and positioned him as one of Italy’s most compelling new voices in experimental menswear.
