Fabrizio Viti

Fabrizio Viti was born and raised in the small Tuscan city of Carrara, known fondly for its abundance of marble. A strong female presence in his family, coupled with a love of fashion dolls and 1970s TV shows, informed young Fabrizio’s aesthetic world, which, later specialising in sculpture at Carrara’s art school, blossomed into a burgeoning talent for shoe design. Over the next two decades, Fabrizio’s professional career saw the women’s and men’s shoes he designed steer both the luxury fashion industry and popular culture as he rose to become leading shoe designer at Gucci, then Prada, and in 2004, Louis Vuitton, where he continues to explore his passion as the House’s Shoe Style Director. In 2016 Fabrizio Viti launched his brand which leads to a world so personal and intimate. Fabrizio Viti's creations reveal a love affair with both the art of shoe design and the wonderful women destined to wear them. Across the planet, these are women aged 15 to 85, connoisseurs and the curious alike, whose own identities bring further life to the world that Fabrizio conjures up with his heart and hand.
