Brunello Cucinelli Comes to Richards

We were thrilled to host one of our favorite designers, Brunello Cucinelli, in Richards of Greenwich, CT! Mr. Cucinelli flew in from Italy to spend an informal and informative afternoon with us, treating us to a preview of looks from his stunning Resort/Spring 2010 collection. We lunched on an elegant Italian spread of delicious meat and cheese antipastos, while models dressed in Cucinelli intermingled with guests for two hours.

Lunch was followed by a speech by Cucinelli about his warm relationship with the Mitchell family. Mr. Cucinelli spoke eloquently about his passion for giving back and how people buying his clothes enables him to support some wonderful initiatives in Italy that are close to his heart. (Read more here.) Mr. Cucinelli’s philosophy on family and community parallels that of the Mitchell family and has long strengthened the business and personal relationship between the two families.

It was a beautiful afternoon, literally and figuratively, despite torrential rain outside. We thank the many dedicated Cucinelli aficionados that ventured out!

    Congratulations¡¡¡ I’ve decided to keep all the book collections of B.Cucinelli because they inspired me to dress. I love how Brunello speaks, I love his designs. I think he has the most elegant casual designs, without visuals labels, all quality. Is fantastic. I hope to buy SOMETHING soon….

    I LOVE HIS CLOTHS….
    I WISH THEY WERE PRICED A LITTLE LOWER…
    AS IT IS HARD THESE DAYS TO PUSH THRU $ 5,000 THOUSAND JUST FROM ONE DESIGNER IN ONE SEASON OF BUYING…

    DO LOVE THE QUALITY AND HIS PASSION FOR HIS WORK..
