Synonymous with creativity and color, Pomellato was founded in Milan in 1967 from the visionary idea of entrepreneur Pino Rabolini: to transform artisanal excellence into jewelry with versatile yet precious design. Inspired by women’s growing independence, Rabolini introduced the prêt-à-porter philosophy to the traditionally conservative world of fine jewelry, creating bold and innovative pieces that embody the essence of Milanese design and represent an autonomous choice—a symbol of female emancipation. Rabolini left an indelible mark on women’s style while shaping Pomellato with a powerful, pioneering identity. Nearly sixty years later, his dynamic, distinctive designs have grown to be iconic, revered both in Italy and across the international jewelry landscape.
Founded in 1961 by André and Coqueline Courrèges, Courrèges revolutionized fashion by liberating the female body with clean lines, geometric shapes, and innovative materials like vinyl. A symbol of the 1960s, it embodied movement, modernity, and optimism, notably with iconic creations such as the miniskirt and the trapeze dress. A visionary, André Courrèges also explored other areas: perfumes, industrial architecture, menswear collections, and even an electric concept car in 1968. Acquired in 2018 by ARTEMIS, the brand entered a new era with Nicolas Di Felice, appointed artistic director in 2020, who revived the house’s futuristic heritage while adapting it to contemporary challenges. In 2024, the arrival of Marie Leblanc as CEO confirmed this desire for growth and international influence.
