Conceived by Moncler Chairman and CEO Remo Ruffini, the Moncler Genius project entered its second year during Milan Fashion Week 2019, inducting designers Richard Quinn, Matthew Williams, Veronica Leoni, and Sergio Zambon into its cohort of Geniuses hand-picked to reinterpret the brand’s identity. Housed in a single building on Via Ferrante Aporti, the latest presentation in the Genius project took form as a wonderland of rooms – or tunnels – in which each of the nine experimental collections unfolded under the motto: “One House, Different Voices.” The show is now open to the public, but before the crowds rushed in we sent 032c Fashion Director to experience its many rooms in private – something he eventually did, after succumbing to a small Hollywood moment . . .
Good Evening ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the 2019 Milano Academy Awards! I’m extremely honored to be receiving such an important award: The #MONCLERGENIUS invitation! I would like to thank the Academy, God, and the Remo Ruffini, without whom Moncler just wouldn’t be Moncler. I would also like to thank my loving parents. Without them, I would not be this cool.
Buongiorno Milano! All our drivers didn’t show up – but who needs a driver when you’ve got friends like Jan-Michael Quammie, style director at Highsnobiety, and Luigi Vitali, EiC and Publisher at Dust?
