Manifesto

My name is Gia.

After graduating in Fashion and Textile Design in Milan, Italy, and spending ten years creating collections for luxury fashion houses, I realised I was less interested in building other people’s worlds than creating my own.

I have always been drawn to antiheroes. Their stories felt more human, more complex, and far more interesting than those of heroes. LAB ACCIDENT was born from that fascination — from a desire to build a world where the villain is not the antagonist, but the protagonist. A world that looks beyond the mask of cruelty or power and explores the wound behind it: the struggle, the vulnerability, the history, and the loneliness that turn a figure into something feared, misunderstood, and unforgettable.

Leather feels honest to me.
So does metal.
So does anything that carries tension, power, and mystery.

The work exists somewhere between devotion and threat.
Between beauty and mutation.
Between something ceremonial and something almost impossible to explain.

I think appearance should disturb perception slightly.
Not enough to shock — enough to haunt.
Enough to make someone look untouchable, unreal, like they belong to a myth no one remembers correctly.

There is always a sense of tension in the pieces.
Control and surrender.
Elegance and danger.
Human and something beyond it.

Nothing is created to decorate.
Only to transform.

The rest is simply world-building.
A private mythology told through leather, metal, and rubber and the people who choose to inhabit it.
