Emilio Pucci. Fashion Story

Emilio Pucci (1914-1992) 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 jetset. Today, the house remains as vibrant as ever Victoria Beckham, Elizabeth Hurley, and Kylie Minogue are adherents and recently celebrated its 60th anniversary.
