When it comes to making clothes Gian Romano and Maureen Disini-Teichert may not share the same aesthetic, but the quality of their pieces and their creativity make them today’s must-try designers.
I have a couple of blazers from Gian that I’ve had for the past 10 years that I still use.
My husband is now his new client and he feels so much better when he uses Gian’s pants. I’ve used my first Maureen Disini-Teichert gown on several occasions and it has become my go-to. I appreciate that she uses the best fabric and is still reasonably priced.
I asked them both what their personal Top 10 staples are when it comes to fashion and beauty and this is the list they came up with.
Gian Romano
- Eskinol—“I don’t use anything on my face except for this, not even soap.”
- Haircut by Chiyo Tagami of Sei Salon—“She always gets what I want.”
- White Fruit of the Loom T-shirt—“It’s a staple in my wardrobe. More like my uniform.”
- Black leather jacket—“It’s my go-to thing for going out since I’m just a T-shirt and jeans kind of guy.”
