The "king of cashmere," designer Brunello Cucinelli dropped out of engineering school and used a $550 loan to launch a fashion line in 1978.
Inspired by brightly colored wool sweaters, he set out to create a similar garment in cashmere.
Today his eponymous luxury brand is best known for those cashmere sweaters, but also sells dresses, suits, shoes, handbags and accessories.
Cucinelli took the $1.6 billion (2025 revenues) company public in 2012, listing its shares on the Italian stock exchange.
Since 1985 he has operated Brunello Cucinelli SpA from his headquarters in Solomeo, a medieval Italian hamlet that he has renovated for his employees.
Cucinelli contributed to the reconstruction of several monuments in the central Italian town of Norcia, which was damaged in a 2016 earthquake.
He does not allow work after 5:30 pm and serves 90-minute homemade lunches prepared by the housewives of Solomeo.
