Our Story
Founded in 1995 by Canadian twin brothers Dean and Dan Caten, Dsquared2 blends North American swagger with Italian elegance. Their first menswear collection debuted in Milan, where they developed their signature vision before launching their own global brand.
Design Philosophy
Dsquared2 stands on a playful contradiction—melding edgy Canadian influences with precision Italian tailoring. This “alternative luxury” avoids minimalism, instead embracing expressive, feel-good fashion that makes a statement.

Global Recognition

Motto & Production
“Born in Canada, Living in London, Made in Italy” captures the brand’s heritage and creative ethos. Collections are designed with global inspiration and produced in Italy to ensure uncompromising quality.
