The fashion world is preparing to welcome back Marco Bizzarri, a prominent figure already known for his role as CEO of Gucci during the era of Alessandro Michele. This imminent return was announced by the recent creation of the holding Nessifashion by Bizzarri, a company with an initial capital of 10,000 euros, carried out near the expiration of his non-compete agreement with the Kering group - whose exact date, however, is not known. The company was founded in Rome with Giuliano Foglia, a member of the board of directors of Nessi, with Bizzarri appointed as administrator. The name of the company itself indicates that the investments it will be involved in will be in the fashion sector.

The participation of Bizzarri and his family in Nessifashion is total, with 99% of the shares held by Bizzarri and the remaining 1% by his wife Maristella Levoni. According to MF Fashion, which first reported the news, with a significant net worth already set aside by Bizzarri's previous holding, Nessifashion should have a solid foundation for its future projects. The news is relevant because Bizzarri is not just a manager but has worked, especially in Kering, in several key roles within top global brands like Stella McCartney and Bottega Veneta before arriving at Gucci, where he became one of the few star CEOs in fashion. Beyond fashion, Bizzarri has also found success in various entrepreneurial ventures, especially in the culinary sector, also due to his longstanding friendship with Massimo Bottura. However, how the new company will fit into the broader landscape of Italian and international fashion remains to be seen.
