22.01.2022 WE NEED YOUR HELP As we develop our first ever ready to wear collection, we have, after studying many prominent Australian women’s labels noticed huge differences in sizing. Would you believe there isn’t an Australian standard sizing system?! Labels just make it up. We found discrepancies of up to 10 centimetres between the ‘same’ sizes. That’s where we want to help. At Signor mont, we are innovating the entire ready to wear process, and WE NEED YOU. Help start the movement, ...we want real women to assist us, to allow us to measure them and develop our own standard sizing. We pride ourselves on the flawless fit of our bespoke gowns and why shouldn’t the ready to wear market have the same opportunities?! Sign up in the link in our bio, or leave your email in the comments. Help us help all women. The movement starts here. Anthony and the Signor Mont Team See more

21.01.2022 My beautiful Laura. From another age yet so so current.
20.01.2022 By far the greatest gift this year was the official ‘Signor Mont wedding’ of Anthony’s sister Anne. One not to be forgotten.

20.01.2022 Karla, a queen in our midst. What a vision of elegance @mylittlecompanyphotography
20.01.2022 Me wondering how many influencers are still standing
20.01.2022 A bit of a sneak peek of the magic created for @whoismsfrankie with @ladychutzpah @caterinadibiase @makeup_by_muska @stasiafox_ @theedibleimage
20.01.2022 That time I found vintage angel lace
19.01.2022 Dreaming of spring races. Whether they happen or not. To be honest, it’s not the races I give a shit about. It’s the fact that it’s the one time of year lots of people give them selves permission to dress up, to step into character. Rather than dreaming about the races, maybe we need to turn that into how we dress all year round. If there’s one thing isolation time has taught me, it’s the power of dressing up to change how one feels. Superficial, but also profound.
19.01.2022 Fittings. Where all the magic and accidents happen. The key to the creative process is always being open to surprise.
18.01.2022 Thanks to all who tuned in for @annapaola_dalessio and my gnocchi class! That was fun, even if it was a total bordello again sorry for the technical issues, I’ll sort it this week! Thanks to our sponsors: @floridiacheese @basile_imports @fiorenza.fv
17.01.2022 So close to my heart
17.01.2022 One more just to prove my point
17.01.2022 When you create for the heart and soul, there’s this magic that’s born that can’t be described. That’s when the dreams come true. To all me fellow creatives, use this time to make and celebrate beauty. Let the effects of coronavirus bring forth a rebirth like the Black Plague birthed the renaissance all those years ago. Long live art. Long live beauty.
17.01.2022 Intimate moments getting Kerry ready. A feast of detail. @elkandwillow
17.01.2022 ‘To be superficial you have to be very profound’ .... this is so what I believe. Style is about understanding and education. It has absolutely nothing to do with trends. In fact, trends are the opposite of true, long-standing style.
17.01.2022 The beauty of a smile. Something becoming rare. Smile my darlings, show your teeth, even if you hate them. If your forehead crinkles and your cheeks do funny things when you laugh, you are blessed. Keep on smiling and love your faces as they are.
16.01.2022 Flashback to Bianca. Timeless is what I do best. This gown will never date
16.01.2022 Love love loved doing this one. A cause very close to my heart. Would love to hear your thoughts. SM xx
15.01.2022 Thanks to all who watched our pizza masterclass with @annapaola_dalessio @valerio.pizzamaker and for my cheese @floridiacheese delish!! Can’t believe I didn’t fuck it up
15.01.2022 Happy birthday to my mentor, my inspiration, my greatest supporter, mover of mountains and guardian angel. Happy birthday Zia, thanks for always being there.
14.01.2022 Sometimes, when you have a dream, you can’t tell people, you just have to show them. Also how cute is my zia admiring our work
14.01.2022 Introducing my Jessica. No words needed. @zoekarlismakeup @hairbyneveen
14.01.2022 I’m starting a 2020 bridal initiative. If you are getting married, looking for a gown, are open minded, trust my style and want someone to just ‘take care of it for you’.... comment or DM your email. First in, best dressed. Literally.
14.01.2022 SOUND ON Let’s shoot this beauty soon @ladychutzpah @tooalimillinery
14.01.2022 Me planning my next move
13.01.2022 Kristen and Marc and that magical light. True love shining through @whitevinephotography
13.01.2022 Process for your Friday night. Started with this Venetian printed velvet. Then black skirt, then red skirt, then a bow, then no bow. I find the more I develop as a designer the more I move toward simplicity. Good fit, string silhouette, very carefully considered accessories. I find I’m very bored with lace and really love striking, quality fabrics with a point of interest, be it colour, texture, pattern. Have a great weekend all! X
12.01.2022 With everything that’s happening right now it’s hard to think about anything else, which is a good thing. It’s necessary. It’s overdue. My privilege is something I can’t ignore any longer. Whenever I have this feeling, this internal aching, I turn to education first. Because perception is the key to change. And the way to change perception is via education. The first thing I did was turn to YouTube and search for something that might help me understand how I could help as a designer, and use my platform. And this amazing model @eboneedavis ‘s TED talk called ‘Black Girl Magic in the Fashion Industry’ came up. And it made me hopeful, that I can in some way help this situation. I have linked it in my stories if any industry friends wonder what we can do to help.
12.01.2022 My muse @ladychutzpah Not sure how we always involve pasta or pizza in each shoot
12.01.2022 Feast of St Anthony, 13 Giugno. Best wishes to all the other Anthonys. The irony isn’t lost on me, that the saint I am named after is the patron saint of lost things. I actually think it’s quite beautiful, because I am always searching, always learning and looking for more. Quite perfect actually. Here’s to always searching for more and always trying to be better. May we always be searching and seeking.
12.01.2022 Totally obsessed with Melb designer Signor Mont Couture, we love you Anthony #itsallaboutthedetails #masterofhiscraft Signor Mont Couture

09.01.2022 Thank you Antonio Pasceri for the article in @gazzettadelsud To think my Capistranesi grandparents came to this country for a better life, they would’ve been stoked to see how the land of opportunity has afforded me the ability to turn a passion into a career. It’s only the beginning. Link is in my stories if you’d like to have a read. FORZA CAPISTRANO
09.01.2022 All of life is a play, and fashion is your costume. It’s who you choose to be. That’s the power of fashion, it can help you feel and act differently, when used correctly.
08.01.2022 Karla, a beacon of strength, femininity and grace. An honour to be by her side as she prepared for the most important walk of her life. @mylittlecompanyphotography #mygirlsaregoddesses
08.01.2022 Hey all, just letting you know that I’m going to do something I’ve never ever done before, I’m going to take a month off the gram. I have some important things to work on and change in my life as I realign with what I was put on this earth to do. So I’ll see you all in a month, bigger and better than ever before. Love to all (Ps. This is not code for rehab or a nervous breakdown, I promise! )
08.01.2022 Karla, a feast of lace, and let’s just stop and appreciate that chantilly ruffle detail. A touch of softness for this beauty.
07.01.2022 With 30 years to explore his muse’s style, Anthony isn’t afraid to take risks with his sister, always pushing the envelope not just with her gowns but the styling. Which is your favourite look? Photos: Lumiere Weddings #bridalshower #engagement #hens #wedding #springracing #muse #couture
07.01.2022 Wow. Facebook memory came up with my first ever piece, this skirt for my sister. I had literally only learnt how to make a basic skirt pattern and use a sewing machine 2 months before this. I stitched every spare minute and made my sister this skirt with lace from a little cheap fabric store on Sydney Rd Brunswick. And that was it, the skirt that got me addicted, the first time I visualised something and then made it, from scratch. I still love it today also can’t believe I’ve been sewing 7 years now. The longest but also fastest 7 years of my life. They say it takes 10,000 hours to become a master of any field. Reckon I’m closer to 20,000 at a rough estimate, and it’s only the beginning
07.01.2022 One of the things I hav loved honing over the years is the fit of a garment. And the more my style develops, the more important this becomes to me. With fashion moving towards simplicity, good fit is the one thing that should shine. And I think as designers find their style, it’s so important to master a good fit before trying to be avant-garde and experiment with whacky wild shit. Prove you can fit a classic piece before you throw the baby out with the bath water. Learn the ...rules inside out so you can break them like a boss. Because if you don’t, you’ll know that that ‘impostor syndrome’ you feel isn’t actually impostor syndrome, it’s a lack of technical skill. Challenge yourselves, push your ability to fit a body well and flatter a client’s shape, then have your fun. This pic shows puckering of one of my samples that never made it to production. You can see all the bends and puckering. It’s not rocket science. You pin a bit here, fold a bit there, and you fix it. You keep going till it’s right. Till there’s no folds and puckering and pulling. To all the designers who try their best and really push for that perfect fit, I applaud you, and thank you. Continue to be the benchmark of excellence in an industry that’s getting flooded with influencers releasing active wear and calling themselves designers. They aren’t. Long live quality, technical skill and talent. Xx See more
07.01.2022 Thank you so much to @laurabelleegan for the touching write-up in Il Globo. Wog goals right there
07.01.2022 That look I give anyone blocking a photo location. Fun fact: I’ve been asked to leave government buildings (and the cathedral) about 10-15 times. Oh, and my sister nearly bashed the security guard at the Melbourne town hall when he tried to stop the second pic on her wedding day. Nobody fucks with the Montesanos, especially when one is wearing a crown.
07.01.2022 Been doing a bit more of this lately. Stay tuned...
07.01.2022 Happy Mother’s Day to the original gangsta. The one who taught me N’gule a mammete and how to tell people to fuck off. Love you nonna Flowers made it there
06.01.2022 Put that crown on and remind them who they’re dealing with.
05.01.2022 Laura, draped in hundreds of metres of the softest tulle. French lace sleeves and our signature corsetry, crowned with a side ballgown. We hold a minimum of 8 fittings for each client to obtain that signature Signor Mont fit.

05.01.2022 I love this gown for a few reasons. I cried like a baby the morning of this shoot because I didn’t think I’d finish this dress in time, it was the third of 3 gowns. 3 weeks before this shoot, I ended up in hospital from a leg issue that stemmed from consistently working 20 hour days between teaching and stitching. I still think back and have no idea how I did it. I can’t even count how many nights I didn’t go home but slept in my sewing chair with a pillow laid on my sewing m...achine. The amount of times I’d hear the garbage truck come at 4am-ish and realise I wouldn’t be sleeping that night. This is the price of an all consuming passion and a calling you were born for. This gown pushed me to the brink, any designer who’s sewn leather will know how hard draping layers of leather on a full corset structure would’ve been. But I did it. And I still love it after all these years. See more
04.01.2022 Fa corna while you look for the haters #malocchioamammete
03.01.2022 Devotion. Whether it’s to fashion, a religion, the universe, something you want to change, it’s our greatest currency. Without passion and devotion to a cause, you are passing the days, waiting to die. What’s your cause? If I’m being honest I’m still figuring out mine, but I’m getting closer every day, and that’s the main thing.
03.01.2022 I love that when I look at my work it could be from today or from 70 years ago. True style is dateless.
02.01.2022 Cooking influencer lyf love when zia sends me stuff
02.01.2022 Happy Anniversary to this beauty. What a gown. 100% trust always leads to magic
02.01.2022 Happy Mother’s Day mum, love you. Thanks for fucking me up just enough to become a creative genius
02.01.2022 Sometimes you can’t tell people your dreams. You just have to show them. @lisalouise @ladychutzpah @caterinadibiase
02.01.2022 Because you all love seeing the process.... a constant trial and error till it gets all the elements right. When your gut says it’s prefect. Note the lace sleeve that I ditched after a full day’s appliqué to edit to plain polka dot. Also the peplum idea which morphed into the long side train we ended with. This was the widest scallop detail I’ve done on a gown.
01.01.2022 Felt creative, might delete later
01.01.2022 Fashion is about becoming a character. Who will you choose to dress as today? All the greatest fashion icons understand this. And you don’t always have to be the same character. You can change every day. Test. See what makes you feel good and what doesn’t. But for god sake don’t dress as a follower.
01.01.2022 Preachn’ today. DON’T FUCKING CHANGE YOUR FACE.
