About the designer: Roberto Capucci has been referred to as a fashion maestro, an architect of clothing and a sculptor, but to put it simply, he has been a leading Italian fashion designer. Hailing from Rome, his sculpted apparel much like the Roman sculptures on display in that wonderful city, is a display of inventiveness. Capucci was born to a wealthy Roman family in 1929. He studied at Rome's famous Accademia di Belle Arti. He worked with the designer Emilio Schuberth but soon opened his own fashion house in Rome in 1950 when he was only twenty-one. That same year, he enjoyed a brilliant showing in Florence. The young designer was judged the best Italian fashion designer, selected for praise by Christian Dior in 1956. The same year, he received the Medal of Gold of Venice. His academic interest in fashion led him to withdraw from its commercial aspect in 1980. It was in the subsequent period of 1982 to 1996 that he created one collection a year for different cities like Milan, Tokyo, Florence, Rome, Berlin, Vienna, Graz and Venice, where they were displayed in museums as exhibits with the work of other great artists. Several of the most famous museums in the world have shown this maestro's body of work: Rome's Galleria di Arte Moderna, Florence's Galleria del Costume at Palazzo Pitti, New York's Guggenheim Museum, London's Victoria and Albert Museum and Vienna's Schonbrunn Castle. Many of these exhibits featured more than one hundred examples of his clothing creations as well as many illustrations. He was awarded the honor of a Full Professorship by the University of Peking and Shanghai where he held lessons on the art of design in 1995.
