Stahl appoint fashion design team
27 October 2009Stahl have appointed a new team of Italian fashion consultants, Bianco & White, to support their fashion design, colour and advice programme. Based in the fashion centre of Milan, the consultancy is run by Carmen Rimoldi and Sergio Belloni, both of whom have had many experience of working with the various sectors of the leather industry on a worldwide basis.
Bianco & White first appeared on the fashion scene when it was founded by Rimoldi and Belloni in July 2000. Rimoldi is a fashion, design and scene-designer graduate from NABA and an inventor of exclusive graphic images. Among her current projects are a range of specially branded shoes and bags.
Her colleague, Belloni, is a stylist for women’s shoes working with some of the world’s most prestigious brands. He is also a shoe technician. He is also an advisor to the chemical industry and to tanneries in the field of finishing and the study of new colours and products.
Together they will provide Stahl with an in-depth knowledge of colours, trends and new materials almost two years ahead of the season to which they refer. This knowledge will be invaluable for Stahl’s exclusive strategic and stylistic fashion support for contemporary leather finishing.
Belloni’s and Rimoldi’s first collaboration with Stahl will be the summer 2011 colour preview, details of which will be announced shortly.
