Dsquared2 Pre-Fall 2021 .Like the girls in the Cyndi Lauper anthem, Dean and Dan Caten just want to have fun.If for spring 2021 they kept it quite minimal and simple by revisiting a Nineties’ inspiration through a punk filter, for pre-fall they indulged the young, playful and rebellious spirit that has long defined their fashions.Circle skirts worn with plaid shirts, cardigans and lace-up rain boots summoned a British gardening feel, while the tomboy skater vibe of maxi hoodies with patchwork details were unexpectedly teamed with leopard HotPants layered over lace leggings. Camouflage cargo pants and baggy shorts with quilted details seemed stolen from a boy’s wardrobe, while mini frocks with lingerie-inspired lace details were layered under cozy, oversize patchwork knits. Dsquared2’s signature denim pieces, as well as the brand’s hybrid outerwear styles, were also widely developed in the lineup, next to sexy Eighties minidresses.  Sometimes that’s what you really want from fashion.
