Flaminia Saccucci: The Roman Designer Weaving Art into Fashion
Born and raised in Rome, Flaminia Saccucci spent her childhood just steps away from the Gallery of Modern Art, where she immersed herself in the works of early 20th-century European artists. This deep connection to art led her to Central Saint Martins in London, where her talent quickly shone.
Her 2011 Degree Collection—winner of the prestigious L’Oréal Award—was bought in full by Browns of London and displayed in their iconic South Moulton Street windows. Featured in Vogue Italia, Vogue Deutsch, Vogue Brazil, and Dazed & Confused, the collection also earned a spot at the Victoria & Albert Museum. She recently was handpicked by Imran Amed (BoF) for Pattern, a Phaidon-published book spotlighting the world’s 100 most exceptional young designers.
Beyond Givenchy, Flaminia has crafted prints for Dior, Versace, and Mugler. Her early career included internships at Alexander McQueen, Balmain, Viktor & Rolf, and Alberta Ferretti—a testament to her relentless drive.
Describing her aesthetic as “sharp, clean, but with a twist—always balanced,” she masterfully blends synthetic materials with organic florals, a signature evident in her award-winning graduate collection.
