Moschino Brooches

Italian

The Moschino story begins in the early 1980s, when Franco Moschino (1950–94), a freelance magazine illustrator and Gianni Versace collaborator, founded a label in Italy whose ethos was all about having fun.

Moschino initially pursued a degree in painting at Milan's Brera Academy of Fine Arts during the late 1960s, turning to freelance illustration to help pay his way through school. He found inspiration in Pop art, Dadaism and bold graphics. During the 1970s, he began to work for Gianni Versace’s now-legendary house as a sketcher and freelanced as a clothing designer with other fashion labels. In 1983, encouraged by Versace, he launched his own extravagant and excessive couture collection.

Moschino's expertly tailored, vibrant designs for casual wear and more, each adorned with loud, playful details, spoofed the chic high fashion of the day, and Franco's close relationship with fine art — as well as his eye for innovation — welcomed comparisons to Elsa Schiaparelli over the years. The label’s work essentially mocked the industry even as its hand fed Moschino, with the founder emblazoning shirts with slogans such as “Good taste doesn’t exist” or embroidering jackets with the phrase “Waist of money,” while the theatrical shows were positioned with an undercurrent of critique.

Today, the Metropolitan Museum of Art holds two vintage Moschino handbags in its collection: one shaped like a milk carton and the other an iron.

“Under all the surface witticisms, [Moschino] had a serious knack for running class pieces through a wringer of irony or Surrealism,” observed Vogue. “Chanel-isms were his favorite trope, though he also poked fun at Jean Paul Gaultier’s lingerie dressing and put out pasta bags in a parody of the Prada accessories craze.”

Accessories, jeans and the first men’s collection were presented at the Regal Palace in Milan in 1985, with his Moschino Jeans womenswear collection following in 1986. Then Moschino released Moschino for Women, its first fragrance, the next year in Europe.

In 1988, long before brands had considered the concept of a spin-off, Moschino bowed its cheeky diffusion line for men and women, Moschino Cheap and Chic, during the shows in Milan. The label thrived, adding its first stores in Italy and campaigning for eco-friendly fur. Its retrospective-slash-fashion show “X Years of Kaos” in the early 1990s benefited a children’s AIDS organization.

After Moschino’s untimely death at the age of 44 from AIDS complications, Rossella Jardini, his longtime friend and colleague, took the reins. She carried the torch for nearly 20 years, adding eyewear, watches and jewelry. American designer Jeremy Scott was named creative director in 2013.

Scott, who grew up on a farm and once unveiled a collection of evening dresses charred with burn marks, imbues all his work with a message of inclusion, be it his Fast Food collection in 2014 (hot dog dress included) or Moschino Barbie.

“I don’t care if the critics don’t like me,” Scott told Vogue. “I want to be the people’s designer, like Diana was the people’s princess.”

Turtle Tortoise Brooch Pin Ruby Pink Rhodochrosite 14 Karat Gold Mary Lou Daves

Located in New York, NY

This is a wonderful antique Turtle or Tortoise Clip Brooch Pin with Ruby eyes and a fabulous heart shape Pink Rhodochrosite body in 14 Karat Yellow Gold in a gorgeous three dimensional design from the estate of Hollywood Legend Mary Lou Daves. Ms. Daves' jewelry exemplified her exquisite taste. Her jewels were unique, dramatic and elegant. This is one of the most beautiful antique jeweled animal pins we have seen. The fabulous turtle has a fully modeled three dimensional design with gorgeous Ruby eyes, wonderful engraved patterns throughout its head and legs, and the exquisite pink banded Rhodochrosite heart shaped body. I just love this! This whimsical turtle or tortoise walks delightfully across the body and creates a conversation piece to be passed on for generations. Animal inspired jewels are all the rage today. These antique gem set animal jewels are among the most highly desired and collected today. Provenance: The turtle is from the Bel Air estate of Delmer and Mary Lou Daves where a who's who of Hollywood legends (Cole Porter entertained guests at the piano) were entertained. Their love story began on the set of the 1938 film, "Professor Beware." As a successful contract writer for Warner Bros., Delmer Daves wrote the screenplay and wanted to visit the set to see how things were going. 19-year-old, Mary Lawrence was cast as the Bride. He was instantly smitten. "So you're playing the bride? I wish you would marry me," he quipped. "I shall answer you with the same spirit you asked me. Of course I will be yours forever." The two were married for 39 years, had three children and a lifetime of adventures. His career spanned 40 years during which he wrote and/or directed 80 movies including: Love Affair (1939), Destination Tokyo (1943) , Hollywood Canteen (1944), Dark Passage (1947), Broken Arrow (1950), Birds of Paradise (1951), The Last Wagon (1956), An Affair to Remember...

Fall 1989 MOSCHINO Dinner Cutlery Fork Knife and Spoon Brooch Full Set with Box

By Moschino

Located in Munich, DE

Early Moschino pieces designed by Franco Moschino himself – often referred to as Italian fashion's "enfant terrible" – within the short period when he launched the House of Moschino in 1983 until he passed away in 1994 are sought after and highly collectible. This treasure, like several others – some of them already available in my shop, more to be listed gradually –, comes direct from a German socialite and fashion lover so has not been on the market prior to this. This is a rare and collectible full set of three cutlery brooches with their original box from one of Franco Moschino's most iconic collections, the Fall 1989 "Show-off" couture runway collection. Capturing the fun and charm vibe that Moschino has always represented as a brand, they are the epitome of a conversation starter accessory! Pieces of this legendary "Dinner" collection are held by various fashion museums worldwide. We sold the "Dinner" jacket and skirt suit to The Museum at FIT in NYC last year. The set comprises three gold-colored metal brooches featuring a fork, a knife and a spoon with a deliberate black patina and double pins on the back. All pieces are embossed MOSCHINO. Original box still present. Excellent vintage condition. Hardly ever worn. Deliberate black patina. Irregularities on metal are original. Fork: approx. 12.7 cm x 2 cm – 5" x 0.79" Knife: approx. 13 cm x 1,5 cm – 5.12" x 0.6" Spoon: approx. 13 cm x 2,8 cm – 5.12" x 1.1" Weight: Fork (21 g) / Knife (23 g) / Spoon (26 g) Reference photo: Moschino Couture Fall 1989...

Questions About Moschino Brooches

  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 16, 2024
    The difference between Moschino and Boutique Moschino comes down primarily to price. Moschino is the name of the Italian fashion house's high-end line of apparel and accessories, while Boutique Moschino is a diffusion line that offers pieces priced around 40% less. Until 2014, the Boutique Moschino label was called Moschino Cheap and Chic due to its more economical pricing. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of Moschino apparel and accessories.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 26, 2024
    The country that Moschino is from is Italy. Franco Moschino founded the luxury fashion house in Milan in 1983. During the 1970s, he began to work for Gianni Versace's now-legendary house as a sketcher and freelanced as a clothing designer with other fashion labels, and it was Versace who encouraged him to launch his own label. Find a wide range of Moschino apparel and accessories on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMarch 13, 2024
    Whether Moschino is true to size depends on the piece. The Italian luxury fashion house has its own sizing system, which is different from the ones used by other labels and can vary from piece to piece. As a result, Moschino recommends that you read the sizing information on the product sheet to determine which size is right for you. On 1stDibs, find a variety of Moschino apparel and accessories.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024
    When it was announced in 2023 that Jeremy Scott was leaving Moschino, he did not state publicly why he was stepping down as its creative director after 10 years. He later stated that he felt that it was time for a new direction after his decade with the luxury brand. He continues to own his eponymous brand. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of Moschino apparel and accessories.

Moschino has continued to produce expertly tailored, vibrant designs with theatrical flair and fine details like embroidery. Find a selection of Moschino apparel and accessories on 1stDibs.
