Giambattista Valli

“I like things that are kind of eclectic, when one thing doesn’t go with another. That’s why I love Rome. It has a touch of everything. That’s my style, and that’s what my work is about.”

 

—Giambattista Valli
 
 
 
 

KAUFMANFRANCO

 

After collaborating at some of the world's top fashion houses, Ken Kaufman and Isaac Franco created KAUFMANFRANCO in 2004. The line is marked by sensual cuts that at first seem simple. A closer look reveals more thoughtful elements like lush fabrics and a supreme attention to fit. The result: a collection designed to captivate.
