NTMB presents first, opening chapter of the SS19 collection, totally inspired by the “Divine Comedy” written by Dante Alighieri.

It will be proposed, item after item, the stages of the journey undertaken by the Supreme Poet through the three dimension of the afterlife: from the bottom of the Hell to the Rose of Paradise, portraying the emblematic perspective of his adventure with the contemporary point of view of NTMB.

The Naples-based collective has been customizing denim pieces for Faith Connexion. Last year, they brought their particular brand of whimsical graffiti and appliqués to Wrangler, lavishing a jacket with feather-like embellishments. Earlier this year, they worked with the childrenswear brand Coccole e Bimbi on a charity project.

For Spring 2019 the duo—a couple in denim and in life—is ready to go it on their own. During a showroom visit in Paris, they presented “Primo,” a short, to-the-point collection inspired by Dante’s Divine Comedy and comprising a journey through the afterlife in three Canticles, from blue-and-white “Paradiso” to blazing “Inferno.”

The collection offers a new raison d’etre to the Divine Comedy with the unique style of the label that places its strengths in the handmade, creating the fusion of new elements the first and innovative release of Never Too Much Basic.
