The career of Marco De Vincenzo began by chance in the accessories field at Fendi fashion house. It was 20 October 2000. Marco was just 21 years old at the time of his job interview, and arrived with merely a portfolio of clothing and an obsession: designing clothes. But they told him that the only area open to him was working on bags. “If you’re so good at designing you’ll be able to design these too”, they reassured him. And it was true. So Marco accepted the job. In 2009, after almost 10 years of working side by side with Silvia Fendi as an employee, Marco decided to take a risk: work as an outside consultant for the brand, and at the same time work on his own collections. The reason? Once again it was his passion that led him to design clothing every evening, after a day of work. Marco had little experience in the clothing sector, but a lot regarding materials and working methods. He thus turned to a tailor and a fashion designer to carry out the manual work. “I had some money set aside and I said to myself: I’ll give it a try, I’ll produce my first collection. At this point I have to begin,” Marco explained. This is how Angelo Sensini, his PR rep, encouraged him. “If you get to at least 20 pieces, we’ll present them at the Paris Fashion Week.” The result was Marco De Vincenzo’s début fashion show. Amidst acknowledgements and difficulties, the path he started down has today reached the fourth collection.Brand Details
