“If you’re a child, you’re allowed to dream, to dress differently… I would have liked to wear [Prince Charming’s] hat after Carnival and instead it was put away in a box. Why isn’t one allowed to wear Prince Charming’s hat not only for Carnival?” While preparing for the Gucci Fall Winter 2020 men’s fashion show, Alessandro Michele reflects to filmmaker Yuri Ancarani on how as a child, one can dress with complete freedom. He remembers a cherished Prince Charming costume he wore for the Carnival—an annual festival in Italy with processions, music, dancing, and masquerade. The whimsy and details of children’s clothes were woven through the collection shown in Milan’s Palazzo delle Scintille.
