Renzo Rosso and the Caten twins settle their legal clash
Less than one month ago, however, Dsquared2 - which founded by Canadian twins Dean and Dan Caten – announced in a terse press release 'the immediate termination' of the Staff International license. Five days later they issued a second statement attacking Staff and Rosso for 'several serious contractual breaches,' without being more specific. By all accounts, Rosso was infuriated by the second release, and determined to guarantee that DSquared2 respect what he thought was a perfectly legitimate contract. And OTB made clear he was determined to contest the dispute vigorously in court. A hard-charging self-made man, Rosso's fashion empire encompasses stellar brands like Marni, Jil Sander and Maison Margiela, Hence, today's announcement suggests peace – at least for the moment - has been restored. The statement underlined that the new understanding of their agreement 'is grounded in a more transparent and synergistic approach, encouraging the active exchange of expertise, technologies, and distribution resources to drive the evolution and growth of the collections, ensuring stability and cooperation and supporting the Dsquared2's evolution in the process of internalization.' However, it also added that the 'evolution will be managed collaboratively, through a structured handover plan, based on transparency, respect and mutual trust," suggesting that when the license reaches its end in 2027, DSquared2 will be free to find a new partner. 'The decision marks a significant milestone in a long-term relationship built on shared values and goals, with a deep respect for all people involved and a clear vision for the brand's future. In a spirit of mutual cooperation and the best interest of both parties, the parties envision to continue the collaboration for the childrenswear collections,' the announcement concluded. Born in Willowdale, Ontario, Dean and Dan Caten (Catenacci, originally) began their career path in fashion by moving to New York in 1983 to attend Parsons School of Design. In 1991, they arrived in Italy where in 1994, after numerous collaborations with major fashion houses, they first staged their debut runway collection. The Catens went on to build a multi-million dollar business. And to dress everyone from Madonna in her iconic western video clip, "Don't Tell Me", to Beyoncé for her Super Bowl performance. This February, they celebrated their 30th anniversary with an epic show in Milan.

Dsquared2 Resort 2026 Collection
Forget roughing it in the Canadian woods in oversized survival gear, muddy boots, and mosquito nets. This season isn't about blending into the pines, as it often is a DSquared2, whose founders Dean and Dan Caten hail from the wilds of Toronto. Rather, it's about being prep school troublemakers defying the norm. 'They're proper, polished rebels.' say the designers. You can't call them rebels with a cause, unless, of course, style counts. Draped in sharply tailored linen suits worn with crocheted polos channeling Gene Kelly's Hollywood swagger, or slouched in distressed denim bombers straight out of James Dean's playbook, the DSquared2 guys channel old-school vibes with a Gen-Z edge. Their girls are just as sexy and mischievous in rugged, workwear-inspired denim cut into ultra-minis that barely graze the thigh and jarring flashes of eye-popping lace. Bralettes and barely-there lingerie tops peek out from beneath sharply tailored blazers, and zippered denim onesies cling to the body like a second skin. For the Catens, this kind of mixing of masculine and feminine codes is a declaration of personal freedom. True defiance lies in the courage to be unapologetically authentic in one's self-presentation: 'The most rebellious act is to dress exactly how you want.' On that note, they printed tees, hoodies, and swimwear with Polaroids from the 1970s and '80s by photographer Tom Bianchi whose snapshots depict Fire Island's gay community at its carefree, hedonistic height—a tribute to a once-radical queer aesthetic, blending art, identity, and resistance into everyday fashion.
