ALESSANDRO DELL'ACQUA
Alessandro Dell'Acqua was born on December 21, 1962, in Naples. He received his degree in graphic design in 1982 from the prestigious Accademia di Belli Arti. At the age of 23 he was given an exclusive worldwide contract to design a line for Genny, one of the leading Italian fashion houses, working alongside Gianni Versace, who also designed a line for them. Several years later, he became Creative Director of Pietro Pianforini, a luxury knitwear label, where he developed an extraordinary talent for working with wool, cashmere and jersey. In the years following, Dell'Acqua designed for a multitude of top Italian brands, including Iceberg, Les Copains and Mariella Burani.
In June, 2002, he was awarded the "Oscar della Moda" for "New Women's Designer" by the Italian fashion community.
The men's shoe license with Rodolfo Zengarini began with the Fall 2004 season.
Alessandro Dell'Acqua’s shoes for men are luxurious, but at the same time have an element of eccentricity. The designer embraces the unexpected. The use of contrasting fabrics gives Alessandro Dell'Acqua’s shoe designs a look that is both modern and powerful.
Alessandro Dell'Acqua shoe collection brilliantly strikes a balance between tradition and innovation. His shoes and sneakers give men the freedom to truly express themselves through fashion.
