Pitti Diary – Marcelo Burlon County of Milan – Text by Eugene Rabkin, Photography by Giovanni Giannoni

Dear Diane and Shaded Viewers,

Thursday night at Pitti Uomo culminated in the show of the DJ Marcelo Burlon's label County of Milan. Burlon has launched a line of t-shirts in 2012. In no time these have become streetwear staples popularized by various rappers, such as A$AP Rocky and Pusha T. On this occassion Burlon tried his hand at doing a full line of high-end streetwear, some of it clearly inspired by motorcross. It was a lively affair set in a circular concrete venue, like a modern version of a Roman circus. For the additional oomph, Burlon brought two professional motorcross sportsmen (or stuntmen, if you wish). Obviously there was a dance party with a DJ afterwards.

Best,

Eugene
