Dressing Royalty: Stefano Ricci Delivers Luxury Fit for a King
Renowned Italian luxury designer Stefano Ricci and his sons recently unveiled their latest collection at the breathtaking Reggia di Caserta near Naples. The exquisite setting provided the perfect backdrop for their Spring/Summer Collection 2020, aptly titled “King for a Day”. Against the backdrop of the UNESCO world heritage site’s lush gardens and historic fountains, models strutted in impeccably-tailored suits in striking shades of yellow, red, and blue, embodying the essence of royal sophistication.
Often referred to as the “Clothier to the 0.001 Percent,” Stefano Ricci is synonymous with luxury menswear that exudes opulence and refinement. Since its establishment in 1972 in Florence, the brand has adorned celebrities like Andrea Bocelli, Morgan Freeman, and Tom Cruise, as well as world leaders such as Nelson Mandela. Their latest collection features exquisite pinstripe suits, vibrant knitwear, stylish field jackets, and sumptuous tuxedos – all expertly crafted using traditional Florentine sartorial techniques.
In an era saturated with online designer goods, Stefano Ricci offers a bespoke and exclusive experience for their discerning clientele. Targeting the world’s wealthiest men, the brand caters to those seeking truly unique Made in Italy pieces that reflect their individual style. Whether it’s a luxurious suede jacket priced at 5,050 euros or a silk-and-crocodile baseball cap for 1,600 euros, each item serves as a testament to unparalleled craftsmanship and luxury.
Drawing inspiration from his passion for the outdoors, Stefano Ricci designs for the modern alpha male who appreciates fine art and has a love for hunting. His creations strive for a perfect blend of structural integrity and exquisite softness, showcasing a harmonious combination of sophistication and comfort. By focusing on emerging markets like Russia, China, and the Middle East, the brand continues to flourish and extend its global reach.
Despite facing economic challenges like the US-China trade tensions and Brexit uncertainties, Stefano Ricci remains steadfast in its unwavering commitment to quality and excellence. The brand’s success can be attributed to its relentless dedication to sourcing the finest raw materials and delivering exceptional collections that resonate with its refined customer base.
As Stefano Ricci gracefully hands over the reins to his sons, he reflects on his illustrious career – a highlight being the opportunity to dress Pope Francis in a white silk vestment in 2015.

Through bespoke experiences, personalized service, and a steadfast commitment to quality, Stefano Ricci continues to reign as the king of luxury menswear, crafting a timeless legacy fit for royalty.
