For my generation, Texas was such a charming place,” says Brunello Cucinelli, who grew up watching Westerns filmed in Europe and directed by Italians. “When we thought of America, we thought of Texas and of Sergio Leone films with Clint Eastwood. And then, of course, came Dallas.”
It’s been 20 years since the Italian designer inked his first deal with the Dallas-headquartered Neiman Marcus, and during those two decades, the retailer and Cucinelli have worked together to provide exclusive offerings to discerning customers. This month, Cucinelli drops perhaps his most ambitious capsule collection yet, appropriately dubbed Icon, on the heels of receiving this year’s Neiman Marcus Award for Distinguished Service in the Field of Fashion.
