Tutto da capo
Penso che "tutto da capo" significa di riavviare di nuovo, da fermo". To start all over again; to start from scratch. Era usato di scrittore di calcio di descrivere Juve dopo hanno perso il finale di Champion's League.
Ma non vedo come la locuzione è costruito.
Everything from the leader?

I agreee with the precente answuers.
In addition I think that "tutto da capo" could also mean "fresh start" as an opportunity to to start over again

In italian "capo" stands for "head". In a top-bottom order it comes first. You can understand capo-related :-) idioms keeping this in mind.
For example: "da capo a piedi" (or "dalla testa ai piedi": the equivalent english idiom is "head to toe"). So your translation is good. "Da capo" (or more commonly, "daccapo") means "again", "from the beginning". In writing (or in a figurative sense) "andare a capo" means "to start a new line."
Another idiom is "siamo da capo a dodici" i.e. "we are back where we started": "dodici" comes from the number of the months in a year.

Perhaps the idea is "from the top down", "from top to bottom". I am not sure.
