According to Betti Proietti the twelve collections express Contemporary Design, cultural and stylistic research
with obvious quotations to the world of costume and art. A research for new shapes emerges thanks to
exasperated lines that however keep good proportions, the mingling between classical and innovative fabrics
is lit up by flashing prints, or silver and pewter embroideries. Total black is disrupted by artistic brush strokes
evocating futuristic paintings and hand made work blends with surreal hi-tech prints.
The Irene Brin Prize, in its 45th edition, has been awarded by Sara Maino to Aldo Maria Camillo, Creative
Director of the Maison Cerruti. Following his diploma at the Accademia Costume & Moda and a master at the
FIT in New York, he undertook his career, first as formal wear Senior Designer for Ermengildo Zegna, then as

CERRUTI.
