Biography

Cerruti 1881 is a menswear fashion brand located in Paris and was founded in 1967 by Nino Cerruti. The company has ties with the Lanificio Fratelli Cerruti textile mill, which Nino Cerruti's grandfather, Antonio Cerruti, created in 1881. Nino took over as president of the company in 1950 and began producing menswear. The brand became well regarded for their contemporary, more relaxed style of suit making, including unlined suits and blazers. In 1968, Cerruti 1881 became the first fashion house to show menswear and womenswear concurrently on the runway.
