You Need To Know-Designer Alessandro Dell’Acqua.Alessandro Dell'Acqua (b. 21 December 1962 in Naples) is a fashion designer. He presented his first prêt-à-porter collection at Milan Moda Donna in 1996 and his first men's line at Pitti in Florence in January 1998.
Dell'Acqua took over as creative director at Malo, the Italian luxury knit company, and showed at Milan Fashion Week for the Spring 2009 season in September.
At June 2009, Dell'Acqua sent out a press release informing the press that the men's Spring-Summer 2010 and women's Pre-spring 2010 collections will be produced without his approval, and departed ways with his eponymous label.
Currently, Dell'Acqua is back on the fashion scene with a new collection, named N°21. The name comes from the designer's birthday, and it's also his lucky number. The 80-piece collection, which spans dresses to knitwear to outerwear, will debut at the upcoming Fall 2010 Milan Fashion Week with a small runway show on February.
Dell’Acqua, who, aside from his eponymous label has also designed for such brands as La Perla, Borbonese and Malo. Last February, he launched N° 21, his new line.
Very optimistic about the success of this new collaboration, Alessandro Dell’Acqua stated, “I feel extremely proud of the trust and esteem that has been shown to me by Brioni Management. I am confident that this partnership will prove to be very satisfying.”
Founded in 1945, Brioni is better known for its menswear, which was named the most prestigious men’s fashion brand in the United States in an independent survey conducted by the Luxury Institute of New York in 2007.
“The appointment of Alessandro Dell’Acqua demonstrates the Group’s desire to strengthen the womenswear collection, which has been a source of tremendous growth for some time,” said Andrea Perrone, President and CEO of the Brioni Group.
“I believe that our partnership with Alessandro will allow us to achieve our objectives and help to make the Brioni woman a style icon in the women’s market,” Perrone added.
