I feel something special for Missoni, even though It's not so my style I like the feelings that this brand brings to me.
The knitwear in colourful patterns is its classic! The history started in 1953 by Ottavio and Rosita Missoni.
Anna Piaggi as a legendary icon and editor is in part responsible for Missoni's business progress. First collection was launched in Milan in 1958, the name? Milano-Simpathy.
First boutique opened in the US: inside Bloomingdales in early 70s with Diana Vreeland's support, editor of Vogue.
Carpets, tapestries, stripes, geometrics, abstract florals; the fabrics are wool, cotton, linen, rayon and silk: That's all Missoni!
