Alessandro Dell'Acqua was born on December 21, 1962, in Naples. He received his degree in graphic design in 1982 from the prestigious Accademia di Belli Arti. At the age of 23 he was given an exclusive worldwide contract to design a line for Genny, one of the leading Italian fashion houses, working alongside Gianni Versace, who also designed a line for them. Several years later, he became Creative Director of Pietro Pianforini, a luxury knitwear label, where he developed an extraordinary talent for working with wool, cashmere and jersey. In the years following, Dell'Acqua designed for a multitude of top Italian brands, including Iceberg, Les Copains and Mariella Burani.
