MaxMara - 90's
Achille Maramotti was not only an exceptional businessman but he had intuitive qualities and skills regarding design, manufacturing, marketing and international distribution of ladies fashion.
It's amazing that one individual could be so multi talented remembering that he graduated in law and became a leading force not only in the fashion industry but also within the Italian banking fraternity, he and his family holding a controlling interest in Credito Emiliano and directorships in Unicredito Italiano and Mediobank.
During his life time his ever growing ART collection was also a great contribution to Italian cultural life, his collection including works by Alberto Burri and Julian Schnabel..
His farsighted marketing nause prompted him to on occasions hire the very best of fashion photographers for his advertising campaigns such as Sarah Moon and Richard Avedon.
