Our story
The Sea Costume
BAGNO was born in 2025 at the intersection of two worlds: Italian couture workshops and Mediterranean shores. A house founded on the conviction that summer's most stripped-down garment — the swimsuit — deserves the same care as haute couture.
The vision
A question, an evidence
In 2025, Pierre Castellani leaves the ateliers of the Veneto, where he spent three years watching the end-of-roll fabrics from Italy's great houses. Metres of noble material — Loro Piana woolens, Ratti silks, Bonotto technical weaves — ended as scraps, condemned to oblivion. He asks a question: why is the swimsuit, summer's most intimate piece, the only men's garment never to have earned attention?
BAGNO is born from this refusal. Every swimsuit is cut from fabric that has already lived — but never been worn. Every talisman is composed of stones pulled from the earth, not from a catalogue. The result is not a swimsuit. It is a gesture: toward the material, toward the body, toward oneself.
Craftsmanship
Three commitments
01
Upcycled Fabrics
End-of-roll fabrics from Veneto and Piedmont workshops. Technical textiles designed for the greatest houses, diverted for the sea. Every metre has a provenance. Nothing is anonymous.
02
Natural Stone Jewel
Seven natural stones, chosen for their density of meaning. Volcanic obsidian, lapis ground by centuries, turquoise polished by the desert. The talisman is composed — not purchased.
03
Elegant Cuts
No standard sizing. No flat cut. Every swimsuit is conceived as a soft sculpture — it follows the body without constraining it. Precision is the first luxury.
