We deep dive into the duo's relationship
Risso, for his part, remembers first becoming aware of Klein through Instagram."At first I thought he was a model that was dressed in Marni on some shoot, but the imagery I got to see seemed a little too honest and authentic to be some fashion editorial of sorts," he says."I started to follow him on social and only then realized that he made music, with his band. Then another picture of him wearing Marni came up again and we connected.
The relationship took off and Marni would end up dressing Klein for his band's tour with pieces straight from the runway."I’m still learning to carry myself with more confidence so wearing bright, bold pieces that demand attention is inspiring." he says of the label's pieces, which he calls"daring" and brave."
Indeed, Marni's spring runway was one of the few shows to actually embrace racial diversity, body inclusivity and gender fluidity this season. "My mom and her sister have always been so cool about this stuff," he says."I remember going thru my Aunt Ann’s closet at a super early age and trying things on. They never made me feel weird about it. In fact, they kind of encouraged it. I’ve never felt the need to defend or protect my masculinity. It’s just not part of my DNA. Wearing a skirt or french braiding my hair or painting my nails… these things don’t make me more of a man or less than one. it’s just clothes.
For Risso, an avid music lover, the friendship goes beyond a typical brand-musician pairing."Fashion is no longer a presumptuous monologue, it’s a shared space for people to express points of view," he says. To me Marni is that, a playground for creative, unconventional conversations ... I am happy to see that music is now drawn to Marni, too.
