Built upon the cross-cultural ideal of European elegance and Australian comfort, Subfusco essentially seeks the contrast of sophistication and raw detailing, delivering customers a cutting-edge and unique product.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__BIt021NNAI/Se0VxLjvInI/AAAAAAAAEL4/_TPu5rLPYqo/s1600-h/Subfusco.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326937868909617778" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 197px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 144px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/__BIt021NNAI/Se0VxLjvInI/AAAAAAAAEL4/_TPu5rLPYqo/s400/Subfusco.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The man behind the company is Joshua Scacheri. After relocating to Italy to pursue a professional football career at the age of 16, he took an unexpected liking to the realm of fashion. He became heavily influenced by the style and culture exhibited in his new surroundings and upon return to Australia, decided to swap ‘the boots’ for a sketch pad.&lt;br /&gt;The label’s progression has seen him participate in such events as Rosemount Australian Fashion Week, Mercedes Benz Brisbane Fashion Festival and more recently Penthouse Mouse in Melbourne. His latest business venture has taken Subfusco into the city of Mumbai, India, to participate in an exclusive all-Australian fashion preview.&lt;br /&gt;From conception to creation, Subfusco is 100% Australian, offering excellent craftsmanship &amp;amp; quality to every garment. Touching back to his Italian roots of loyalty and integrity, Scacheri is adamant about staying true to this ethic of supporting the local and national fashion industry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To find the designs of Subfusco visit the concept store located within the TCB Arcade, Brunswick Street Mall Fortitude Valley, Brisbane.
