Renowned for the precision of his cuts and the quality of his materials, Francesco Smalto dressed prominent figures – heads of state, artists, athletes – and became the tailor to the international elite. The house is particularly recognized for its work with cashmere and fine materials, with extreme attention paid to the finishing and construction of each piece. Its ready-to-wear collections embody the codes of haute couture – precise cuts, exceptional materials, meticulous details.
