Mystery Mogul - One of the biggest success stories in Italian fashion over the last decade has been New Guards Group. The Milan streetwear platform rose to prominence thanks to brands such as OffWhite Co. and Palm Angels and was acquired by FARFETCH in 2019. (Since then, the trend has turned. The current situation seems to be difficult.) NGG was founded by a Claudio Antonioli, Marcelo Burlon and Davide De Giglio. The three men complemented each other perfectly. Claudio, owner of ANTONIOLI GROUP, is the retail and distribution expert. Marcelo is a marketing genius and knows everyone who’s someone. Davide is the production wizard. Whereas Claudio and Marcelo talk to the press, Davide keeps a low profile. Because he stays behind the scenes, The Business of Fashion once called him the “Mystery Mogul”. Now Davide has revealed that he has acquired a majority stake in the label of designer Umit Benan. His plans? A secret for now, but Angela Tovazzi has pieced together the main facts in a story for FASHION Magazine.

Anche colpa nostra - 2024 has turned out to be a tough year for luxury brands. Unfortunately, it’s not likely that 2025 will be much better. There are a myriad reasons for this, a slowdown in China, geopolitical uncertainty, a flailing consumer sentiment etc. But: Maybe the luxury brands themselves bear some responsibility, don’t you think? That’s certainly the opinion of Andrea Guerra, CEO of Prada Group. At the Altagamma conference in Milan, Guerra made a list of several “errors” that brands committed over the last years of exuberance. 1) Hefty price increases, entry prices included. 2) Creative directors that strayed away too far from the brand identity. 3) A lack of cost control that’s now evident in margin erosion. What do you think? Check out all the details on FASHION Magazine.

"Crescita di prezzi non di pezzi" - The luxury market has slowed down. Instead of growing the number of items sold, many mega brands have hiked prices and recuded volumes. That's a big problem for Italy where most of the high-end manufacturing is done. In fact, short-time work hours have skyrocketed. At the annual assembly of Sistema Moda Italia, president Sergio Tamborini who is also CEO of Ratti S.p.A. Società Benefit, has appealed to policymakers in Rome and Bruxelles to come up with a "strategic plan".
