Merchant to designer, Antonio Marras.

Antonio Marras grew up in his father's fabric store and lists himself as a merchant on his professional card, but recently the romantic designer has been making his mark in Milan as "poetic."   Antonio designs feminine clothing, which is drawing international attention because of his ability to combine vintage pieces and patterns with a modern flair.  Antonio has been noted as drawing his inspiration from love films, such as Bright Star for his Spring 2011 collection and uses his childhood memoirs, interpreting his past through his present day vision making each piece unique.  The culmination of his masterful pieces create a beautiful story that is shown through the stitching of his clothing.
