In the age when Savile Row was synonymous with men’s style, an innovative Italian, Gaetano Savini, put his country on the map, forever reinventing menswear. From the first men’s fashion show at Florence’s Palazzo Pitti in 1952 to his craftsmanship influences still evident in today’s styles, Savini was truly a creator on the cutting edge.

Gaetano Savini, the Man Who Was BRIONI takes the reader inside the Italian fashion designer’s legacy as the visionary and designer extraordinaire behind the Brioni luxury brand. The book highlights examples of Savini’s innovative cuts, bold colors, and the psychedelic patterns that led the Peacock Revolution of the 1960s. It also includes sketches and newspaper articles illustrating how the man became the legend.
