The House of MARK / GIUSTI Launches "SUMMERLCIOUS" Capsule Collection

A Vibrant Love Letter to Summer, Freedom of Expression, and Slow Living

Milan, 21 June 2025 — milan

The Inspiration

“This collection took me back to my first solo trip to Spain, a time of self-discovery, warmth, and the beauty of feeling free. I fell in love with Seville, Granada, and Alhambra's stunning tiles. I was already fascinated by mosaics, and through this collection, I wanted to bring back that spirit of being young, daring, and fully at ease in my own skin.” — Mark Farhat Giusti

The mosaic patterns were inspired by a fountain in the gardens of the Alhambra Palace in Granada, Spain, a place that holds some of the finest examples of Moorish mosaic art.

“To me, summer means sun-kissed skin, salty sea water, the coarse texture of sand, laughter echoing on midsummer nights, and the innocent nostalgia of summer romances. These feelings let me taste summer, just like oranges, lemons, watermelon, and prickly pear. I wanted to capture all of it.” — Mark Continues

THE COLLECTION

This collection features lightweight, colourful pieces designed for travel, spontaneity, and joy. Signature styles like the Maiori and Minori return in bold shades of yellow, coral, green, and electric blue.

Playful new charms, including a gelato, a lemon, and an aubergine, offer opportunities for personalisation and humour, with options to add initials or quotes.

Materials include:

• Natural linen/hemp blend
• Vegetable-tanned leather
•  100% cotton mosaics
• Brightly coloured cowhide, all sourced from existing surplus stock

CIRCULAR BY DESIGN: When Nothing New Is Produced — Only Transformed

Summerlicious is a conscious response to our fast-paced world. Built entirely from surplus and existing materials, it proves that luxury can be both joyful and responsible, without compromise. “It was a creative challenge, but also an important decision to make as part of our sustainability goals,” says Mark.

ART MEETS ACCESSORY: A New Collaboration with Gabriele La Teana

In a bold creative partnership, MARK / GIUSTI collaborates with Italian artist Gabriele La Teana, whose surreal, emotionally driven work explores identity, dreams, and transformation. Gabriele, fresh from a residency in Valencia, Spain, created a two-part, three-metre artwork reflecting the essence of summer: freedom, romance, and bold vibrancy. Both designers were united in their vision to transport the viewer into a vibrant summerland, where all characters are celebrated for who they are.

“With Gabriele, we wanted to go deeper into emotion. Art in sé is a freedom of expression. It’s a language of one’s self, experiences, emotions, and dreams.” — Mark

The collection also introduces a limited-edition capsule of one-off pieces: totes, agendas, and clutches. Where each bag becomes a playful expression of personality, made unique with artist-designed charms also reflected in the collection: a Gelato, a Lemon and an aubergines.

ABOUT GABRIELE LA TEANA

From graffiti to sculpture and digital art, his pieces are raw, personal, and poetic.
