The transformation of Måneskin's magnetic Damiano David

Rebellious, wild, and vintage: with this look Damiano David, frontman of Måneskin, has made his mark on the international stage, from Eurovision to Coachella. With his voice, he can sound like a rock star. But don't be fooled - he can be a sweet-sounding pop star too!

We have all witnessed how Måneskin has had international success with songs like 'Beggin' and 'I Wanna Be Your Slave'. Some credit should probably go to its charismatic frontman.

Participation in the 'X Factor' in 2017 was decisive for the careers of all the band members, especially for Damiano, who, since then, has experienced an evolution not only in music but also in style, becoming a true fashion icon.

This is due to increasingly daring and surprising looks, initially inspired by glam rock, which wink a little at the 70s scene dominated by David Bowie or Mick Jagger.

The daring outfits are accompanied by bold eyeliner and eye-catching accessories. It has created a phenomenon that has managed to win over more and more audiences with each performance, thanks to their inexhaustible charisma and energy.

After making a name for themselves thanks to 'X Factor', Damiano and Måneskin made it to Italy's most important festival, the 'Festival di Sanremo', in the 2021 edition. Their victory made them fly directly to the 'Eurovision Song Contest' of the same year. The rest is history.

On the Eurovision stage, Damiano was able to convey all his power, leading 'Hush and Quiet', the song that consecrated both him and his fellow travellers Victoria, Ethan and Thomas, to triumph.

With his triumph at the Eurovision Song Contest, Damiano established himself as a style icon on an international scale. He won the adoration of high-end fashion designers, including Giorgio Armani, who started creating bold, avant-garde outfits for him.

In short, in his early twenties, Damiano David has managed to consolidate a status as a trendsetter, undoubtedly glamorous, but above all genderless.

Born in 1999, originally from Rome, Damiano's all-round talent, together with that of his bandmates, has managed to take Måneskin to the top of the world charts.

After winning Eurovision, the band opened a Rolling Stones concert and won a myriad of awards, including Best Rock Song for 'Beggin' at the Billboard Music Awards 2022; and in the Best Rock Category at the MTV EMA in 2023.

The care of his image is at the front of every performance, both for Damiano and the rest of the band. After a period of long, wild hair, in 2023 the frontman decided to give it a final cut, presenting himself to the public with shaved hair and a platinum blond head.

Blazers, striped shirts, leather suits and tight-fitting jumpsuits, often with a retro 1970s flavour: these are the garments that complete the outfits Damiano wears on stage.

In 2023, he was also voted the most handsome man in Italy by a Novella 2000 magazine poll!

And his incredible charm could not be resisted by actress and singer Dove Cameron, with whom he started an official relationship at the Met Gala 2024. "He's like a gentleman, an angel, a teddy bear from the 1950s. He's the best person I've ever met in my life," Cameron told Cosmopolitan in an interview reported by Vanity Fair.

Damiano and Måneskin released their third studio album, 'Rush', in 2023, and continue together as a band. However, the singer has also gone solo. He sounds very different in his poppy singles 'Silverlines' and 'Born with a Broken Heart'! A full album of Damiano David songs is to appear in 2025.
