The King Of Cashmere:
Brunello Cucinelli was born in Castel Rigone, Italy in 1953. Initially, he began a career in engineering but eventually changed paths to creating his own business of dying cashmere. Through his observations of his father’s work experiences, Cucinelli decided upon promoting a concept of moral and economic dignity.

In the 1980s, Cucinelli and his family moved to Solomeo in pursuit of growing as an entrepreneur and humanist. His high-quality “made in Italy” products were becoming popular, and having an increase in market demand allowed the business to flourish. Over the first three months of selling his product, Cucinelli moved around 400 sweaters. Over the next 15 to 20 years, the brand focused on one product area: cashmere sweaters. Cucinelli was seeking perfection for one single thing, “I was the man with the sweaters, the cashmere guy.” (Sourced from Business of Fashion)
