Fashion designer Giuliano Calza grew up with the notions of the Neapolitan culture - having the space to explore the beauty of his surroundings from an early age, creating an imagination that always wanted more. His teenage years led him to become particularly interested in the Mandarin language, eventually moving to Shanghai where his identity began to reach its full form. 

After spending four years in China, Calza returned to create his own namesake label - GCDS - which now, ten years later, has become one of the fastest growing independent brands in fashion. Coming into the Fashion Forensics hot seat, he takes us on his unconventional journey of finding himself through his own imagination, his first impressions seeing Alexander McQueen's shows and what it means to create pop culture.
