(Commonwealth Union) – When someone says the name Brunello Cucinelli in the fashion world people will stop in their step and see what the fuss is about as Brunello is nothing short of absolutely iconic. Some say that born in a different time he would have dressed the gods and the tians and Cucinelli makes sure that this reputation will be one that follows him to the grave.
It is not easy to build the name Cucinelli has built for himself in the industry. To wear a Cucinelli piece is to wear a dream was what a celebrity, whom dressed he had dressed for a gala, stated. People who can afford to have Cucinelli dress them or design for them specifically make it a point to make sure it happens at least once so that they can hold on to the fact that they had the great Brunello Cucinelli dress them or design for them.
Cucinelli started his fashion journey in 1978 in Solomeo which is a tiny village in the Umbria region in Italy which also happens to be his birth place and hometown. He had always wanted to be the master of timeless luxury and to create a brand that was totally Italian which was based of the idea of timless fashion became his abolute vision.
For Cucinelli, this meant that the garment would have to be well made, durable and a one-time piece. He explains that people want to feel beautiful, they want something that only they will have and not something that there are copies of. Although his company has seen a massive growth since he started, Brunello claims that he still gets as excited as he did back them when he was nothing but a son of a farmer selling cashmere sweaters from a farm truck.
