Venice meets Florence, once again.
SUPERDUPER is pleased to announce its second special collaboration with The Erose, the house brand of The Venice Venice Hotel. This new limited-edition collection draws inspiration from the legend of Orio and Melusina — an ancient Venetian tale of love between a fisherman and a mermaid, delicately engraved on every hat.
A one-of-a-kind meeting between Venetian storytelling and the timeless design of Florence’s iconic hat brand.
The collection was presented on Sunday, May 4th, during the Venice M’Art brunch, in the charming Campiello.
During this special event, an exclusive 45" record set by Black Albino accompanied the live customization of the new, iconic hats born from this unique collaboration inspired by Venetian tradition.
An harmonious blend of art, fashion, and lagoon history, creating a memorable experience for all the senses.
Orio, a fisherman,
rescued Melusina, a mermaid
who warned,
“Love me, but never seek me on Saturdays.”
Orio, breaking his promise,
saw her—a serpent.
Still, his love stayed true;
they married,
and her curse was broken.
They lived happily
with three children
until she passed away.
One day,
Orio found a snake in their home.
In fear, he struck
only to realize,
too late,
it was Melusina,
her love still strong.
