Dsquared2 is a fashion brand founded by the Canadian twin brothers, Dean and Dan Caten.[1] After dropping out of Parsons School of Design in New York at age 19, the brothers began at a Toronto-based fashion label, eventually becoming joint head designers.
In 1991, the brothers moved to Italy (their father's birthplace) where they worked with fashion brands Versace and Diesel[2] before launching the Dsquared2 brand in 1994, backed by Renzo Rosso, the founder of Diesel.
Brand

The brand's slogan is "Born in Canada, living in London, made in Italy". The twins have also worked on other projects; they have appeared on America's Next Top Model and co-hosted their own show Launch My Line.[2] Celebrities associated with the brand include the singer Fergie,[3] Madonna, Britney Spears, and Beyoncé.[2] Stars such as Christina Aguilera[4] and Rihanna have also appeared in their runway shows.
