Pucci

This Italian label oozes endless style, craftsmanship and luxury, while remaining true to its roots.  Emilio Pucci started the company in 1950 after unexpectedly making his way onto the pages of Harper’s Bazaar magazine with a ski suit he’d created for a friend 3 years prior.  A Florentine aristocrat, Pucci’s family home- a palace of course- provided the perfect, dramatic backdrop for press and clients to view the collections.

The incredible success of these collections led to Pucci developing concepts and designs for avenues which no other designer had before explored - including uniforms for an airline, the logo for the Apollo 15 space mission, and more recently a printed sail for Wally yachts and furniture collaborations with Cappellini.

Today the brand continues to stay fresh and provides gorgeous clothes which have been seen on fashionable women all over the world, including Audrey Hepburn, Princess Grace of Monaco, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe and Jacqueline Kennedy.   






































Yours Fashionably,
