Avolio

Giorgio. Milanese tailor. He exhibited, together with Bertoli and Pucci, at the Tessitrice dell’Isola, the fashion boutique at the first show organized by Giorgini in Florence at the birth of Italian fashion on February 12, 1951. His style was completely opposite the very fanciful one of Bertoli: raincoats, women’s suits in check patterns, dull colours, and white blouses. Classicism was his trademark. His atelier was in via San Damiano, in Milan.
