Yves Castaldi is a celebrated fashion designer with over thirty years of experience within the fashion industry, which started at a young age of 16 years old. A few years later, he began working as a manufacturer, which inspired him to learn more about fashion design. Along with Yves' manufacturing experience and the knowledge he acquired, it led him to enroll in school for technical knowledge and support. Most of his education was from observing the latest trends and urban designs on the Parisian streets in the South of France, where he was born. He then went on to work with several major Italian, French and American designers.Yves Castaldi's latest couture collection is for men and women. Known for quality craftsmanship and luxurious fabrics, the internationally distributed collection is mysteriously sexy. The sophisticated shopper will find suits, jackets, tops and bottoms, belts, bags and other Castaldi accessories. The boutique will also carry the exclusive high-end Yves Castaldi black collection, which consists of complexly constructed couture pieces found only at the Melrose location.
Yves Castaldi destination, a functional collection of housewares and lifestyle products, will also be introduced. The line will feature pragmatic pieces such as small tables, chairs, wine and magazine racks. The items will be made in small production runs to maintain their exclusivity. The destination line will also include an eclectic selection of emerging sounds from around the globe with a diverse assortment of artists and concept compilations for many listening occasions.
Yves fused both the men's and women's collection in parallel styles, to tell a perfect story. Yves wanted to match the internal connection and likeness of a couple to an external similarity. He uses the collection to tell the same story through fashion and design.
Yves doesn't look back to the history of fashion for his designs. They are very modern and futuristic. Not does he go back to his own previous collections for his inspiration. Once a collection is finished, he leaves is and never looks back. He is always moving onward and upward with his designs. His creative influence and inspiration is happening ever day, all day.
The most important thing to Yves is his endless and intensive level of passion and feeling for each design. The passion within him for every woman allows him to continuously create unique designs. "I put 100% of my personal feelings for all types of women in each collection. My passion for the unique women drives me for the piece that didn't hold my complete attention," says Castaldi. Yves' appreciation of the human body, regardless of shape, size and color, allows him to create flattering and sexy pieces of mysterious rock-and-roll glam. "Sexy is not revealing; sexy is mystery, elegance and charm," says designer Yves Castaldi.
