IN THREE WORDS, I WOULD DESCRIBE MY STYLE AS: TIMELESS, ELEGANT, AUTHENTIC
MY ULTIMATE STYLE ICON: ITALIAN CRAFTSMANSHIP ITSELF. I ADMIRE THE GENERATIONS OF ITALIAN DESIGNERS, TAILORS AND SHOEMAKERS WHO TRANSFORMED QUALITY, ELEGANCE AND ATTENTION TO DETAIL INTO AN ART FORM.
MY SIGNATURE LOOK IS: A CUSTOM-MADE SHIRT, HANDCRAFTED ITALIAN BOOTS, WELL-FITTED JEANS AND A FINE MERINO WOOL JACKET
NO OUTFIT IS COMPLETE WITHOUT: A PERFECTLY TAILORED, CUSTOM-MADE SHIRT
THE MOST TREASURED PIECE IN MY WARDROBE IS: MY COLLECTION OF HANDCRAFTED, CUSTOMMADE BOOTS AND SHOES WITH MATCHING BELTS, EACH DESIGNED EXCLUSIVELY BY ME AND MADE BY ITALIAN ARTISANS
IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME, I WOULD TELL MY YOUNGER SELF: I WOULDN’T CHANGE A THING. KEEP TRUSTING YOUR INSTINCTS—YOU’RE ON THE RIGHT PATH.
