THE ASPESI BRAND IS THE STORY OF AN AVANT-GARDE NORMALITY. INSPIRED BY A TIMELESS STYLE AND SHAPED BY INNOVATION IN TEXTILES; IT'S STYLE BEYOND FASHION
ASPESI was founded in 1969 by Alberto Aspesi as a shirt brand. By the late 1970s, ASPESI was creating complete ready-to-wear collections for both men and women and had established partnerships with prominent designers such as Walter Albini and Franco Moschino. A pioneer in the launch of the iconic down jacket, ASPESI was the first to introduce the garment as a basic outerwear rather than a show or weekend garment. Constant and rigorous textile research has always been at the heart of ASPESI's essence. Even today ASPESI remains faithful to its minimalist, sophisticated and timeless approach. In November 2020 Lawrence Steele was appointed creative director, with the aim of enriching the emotional range of ASPESI, broadening and articulating the scope of a style that in place of volatile frivolity represents a militant awareness.
