"The new documentary, directed by Oscar-winner Giuseppe Tornatore, tells the story of designer, entrepreneur, and humanitarian Brunello Cucinelli as he makes his way from an impoverished childhood on the rural outskirts of Perugia to the upper echelons of the fashion industry. Cucinelli has no shortage of devotees, from tech moguls to fashion insiders to Hollywood A-listersand a veritable cavalcade of them showed up to watch the film and raise a glass to the man."
"Or maybe Trey MacDougal from Sex and the City, Jeffrey Beaumont from Blue Velvet, Hank MacLean from Fallout, or well, you get the point. The man's got range. He's got staying power. And, as it turns out, he has a knack for fashion as well. Though he describes himself as a fashion idiot in his younger years, by the 90s he was getting dressed in heavy-hitting designer gear by labels like Helmut Lang, Comme des Garcons, and Tom Ford-era Gucci."
Giuseppe Tornatore directed a documentary chronicling Brunello Cucinelli's journey from an impoverished childhood on the rural outskirts of Perugia to prominence in the fashion industry. Cucinelli is presented as a designer, entrepreneur, and humanitarian whose work attracts devotees ranging from tech moguls to fashion insiders and Hollywood figures. The world premiere took place at Cinecittà Studios in Rome, with a roster of high-profile attendees. Kyle MacLachlan emerged as a notable fan, describing his earlier fashion ignorance, 1990s designer preferences, and a recent discovery of Cucinelli that led to dinners with the designer and deeper immersion in the Cucinelli world.
