How do you manage to eat during the hectic Fashion Week schedule?
(Smiles) I ask my driver to always get me a panino from Panino Giusto so I can eat while I’m in the car and traveling to the next show.
Describe your shoe collection in three words.

A good coat is a must-have. Now, I am liking this WAKE oversized coat.

Wear something eye-catching and wear it with attitude!

Describe your shoe collection in three words.
Just one word, definitely: classic. But lately, I’m falling in love with sneakers. It makes a rather formal outfit look a bit casual.
What’s your most fashionable weapon of choice to fight the winter cold?
Definitely a thick winter scarf

What’s the best show you’ve seen so far?
I liked the Ralph Lauren Collection. I can see myself incorporating some of their pieces into my personal wardrobe.
What’s the last thing you put on when you dress up for Fashion Week?
My hat—pulls everything together. I cannot live without it.

Describe your shoe collection in three words.
Dandy, particular, and definitely made-in-Italy. I happen to come from the shoe capital of Italy, Marche.
Scruffy beard or man-bun?
Beard, for sure.

What’s the best show you’ve seen so far?
Marni; the explosion of colors was fantastic.
How do you manage to eat during the hectic Fashion Week schedule?
I try to get some small portions from the after-cocktails of any show. (Laughs) Better to have something than nothing!
