MILAN, Jun 26, 2005/ FW/ --- Suave and stylishly melodic to the sound of heavy bass and drums, Ennio Capasa delivers a revolutionary collection for the modern male.

Rock and Roll becomes dandy via tailored trousers that finish at the ankle, hanging low on the waist and slimming the silhouette. Matched perfectly with a fine jersey shirt, sleeves are rolled for attitude and a simple scarf is tied around the neck.

Adhering to the Costume National colour palette of all blues and greys, Capasa adds hints of red and vibrant yellow for a fresh edge to a collection full of energy and something new.

While temperatures soar in the city and heels sink into the tar pavement, Capasa cuts classic overcoats, yet forgets the traditional sartorial suit, turning instead to long jackets that elongate the torso, contrasting and matching lapels.

The red Ace of diamonds fades to grey and lacing, studded detail and zips are reserved for hints of early rock and roll, in a summer discovery of something divinely sexy and innovative.

Bomber biker jackets are a must even in summer. Because the rockabilly has a strict uniform that goes simply beyond seasons and adheres instead to the simple rule of dressing stylishly at all times. Choosing uncomplicated accessories of thin square finished ties, big buckled belts and exquisitely crafted pointed shoes to complete the look.

Absorbing and cool along with the yearning of freshness, Costume National is a collection of ‘energy that makes today’s ideas of ‘eccentricity’ disappear.’
