Emilio Pucci (19141992) sentía pasión por las mujeres, tenía un sentido visionario del estilo y hacía gala de un ojo clínico para el color y el diseño. Con estos talentos, creó una casa de moda sin parangón. A principios de la década de 1950, su boutique en la isla de Capri atendía a una clientela tan acaudalada como sofisticada, herederas y estrellas de cine que compraban sus pantalones Capri, bufandas de seda y livianos trajes de dos piezas. A finales de la década, Jacqueline Kennedy y Marilyn Monroe lucían sus vestidos. A mediados de los sesenta, la marca era sinónimo del estilo de vida dorado de la jetset internacional. La historia de Pucci es una epopeya moderna con raíces en la Italia renacentista: el fundador de la marca, el marqués Emilio Pucci di Barsento, fue un carismático aristócrata cuyo linaje se remonta al siglo XV. Es una historia de evolución: una empresa familiar que pasó de ser una pequeña tienda a una marca internacional. Y finalmente, es una historia de innovación: Pucci fue una de las primeras marcas en contar con un logotipo y una pionera en la diversificación hacia el interiorismo, la. …

Emilio Pucci had a passion for women, a visionary sense of style, and an eye for color and design. With these talents, he created a fashion house unlike any other. By the early ’50s, his boutique on the isle of Capri was catering to wealthy sophisticates, heiresses, and movie stars buying his “Capri pants,” silk scarves, and lightweight separates. By the end of the decade, Jacqueline Kennedy and Marilyn Monroe were wearing his dresses, and by the mid-’60s, the label was synonymous with the gilded lifestyle of an international jet set.
The Pucci story is a modern epic with its roots in renaissance Italy: the brand’s founder Emilio Pucci, Marchese di Barsento, was a charismatic aristocrat whose lineage extends back to the 15th century. It is a story of evolution: a family company that grew from one tiny store to an international brand. And finally, it is a tale of innovation: Pucci was one of the first brands to bear a logo, and a pioneer of diversification into interiors, athletic wear, and accessories. It introduced free-moving, lightweight fabrics, pop-art prints, and a new color palette into womenswear, and constantly pushed fabric and printing technologies.
Featuring hundreds of photographs, drawings, and candid shots from the archive of the Emilio Pucci Foundation, this edition captures the breathtaking elegance and drama of a unique brand. Vanessa Friedman’s text places Emilio’s achievements in the context of fashion history and provides insight into the remarkable Pucci dynasty.
