Mario Dice Fall Winter 2024/25 collection – Lineapelle Designers Edition
Designer Mario Dice‘s new Fall Winter 2024/25 collection, featured in the Lineapelle Designers Edition event, reveals the subliminal message of the work of one of advertising’s queer forefathers.
J.C. Leyendecker was a prominent early 20th century illustrator whose work for The Saturday Evening Post introduced iconic American images such as ‘New Year’s Baby’ and ‘Santa Claus’.
Although his work in advertising was widely recognised, the artist often included hidden messages and used homoerotic themes as codes in his illustrations.
The designer wants to share with the public what struck him about the illustrator’s work and its impact on American and queer culture, declining Leyendecker’s code in the multiple processes of leather: from embossed to laser-embossed, via heat-sealing and needle-punching.
