About Costello Tagliapietra

The label became known for fluid dresses whose apparently simple surfaces concealed intricate cutting and finishing. Both designers learned sewing skills through their families, including grandmothers who worked for Norman Norell. Their later JCRT project brought this attention to construction into shirts, with original plaids and a renewed focus on everyday tailoring.
