Take an exclusive first look into Eli Russel Linnetz’s first IRL show at Pitti Uomo:
arc defies the dubious orthodoxy that you have to study fashion design to make it as a fashion designer. A native of Venice Beach, he pursued screenwriting at the University of Southern California before spending his post-college years experimenting his way through a mutlifarious portmantaeu of creative roles: film director, costume designer, set designer, photographer, graphic designer, and more. What united all of them—and led him eventually to fashion—is that they are forms of storytelling.
Since then Linnetz’s wave hoodie has won him an established design signifier while his hand-made quilting won him a spot in theof Met Gala greatest looks on the back of A$AP Rocky. Last year he collaborated with Dior Men at its show in Los Angeles and was a joint winner of LVMH’s Karl Lagerfeld Prize.
My background is I’m a screenwriter. I’m more of a filmmaker than a designer, as you know. I was doing so much for other people that I never really had the chance to do something for myself, which is why I created ERL I never really intended at first to sell a single piece. It started as me doing something for myself, going back to my roots, and the authenticity of Venice Beach. It was just the medium in which I was expressing myself.
You said you’d love to be at a fashion house. Is there a tension between barefoot Venice Beach Eli and the Eli who is thinking about that role?
