Giulia Danese is an Italian costume designer and maker. Since high school, her interest in visual arts and fashion has always been oriented towards art studies. After graduating in Decoration at the Ligurian Academy of Fine Arts (Accademia Ligustica di Belle Arti) in Genoa, she specialises in Fashion Design and Dressmaking. She decides to focus on clothing and found her own brand, under which she signs every piece of clothing that she personally designs and tailors, as well as clothing lines created specifically for various stores. The mastery she acquired in design and her aesthetic eye lead her to occasionally collaborate with other fashion brands, that require her as style advisor and prototypist. Almost at the same time, thanks to workshops and experiences in the field of arts – such as dance, painting and acting- she starts to work together with several artists, creating not only stage costumes for them, but actual personal styles. So she realizes she can better express her creativity through the story and the building of a character. Many artistic directors, producers and artists of all kinds notice her peculiar talent and ask for her artistic contribution in various fields of show business. Telling stories and creating new worlds through clothing, shapes and colours becomes a full-time occupation for her. Recently she has also started a series of personal productions, which allow her to practice and reconcile the various disciplines of her working background, where over the years she has gained experience with artistic management roles, costume designer, set and art designer for events, cinema, theater and artists of various kinds. These productions have the objective of combining the aesthetic research of two well-defined working realities, such as that of film and theater productions, with that of fashion magazines, in order to create a single artistic product. She loves her job, which allows her to give a new form to the elements and styles she gets inspiration from and convey them into an eclectic and evocative design. She is always fascinated by observing how working with all the colours and costumes on a set or on a stage is similar to creating a painting. She feels incredibly lucky of having the opportunity to give birth to new worlds and see them come to life through a lens.
