Consuelo Castiglioni has relinquished her role as Creative Director at Marni, the beloved Italian brand she co-founded over 20 years ago. The decision to step down was a personal one. Castiglioni said via a release: “These were hectic and exciting years which absorbed all of my energies to create a project I am proud of... The time has now come to dedicate myself to my private life.” Francesco Risso, who has worked for Miuccia Prada on “show collections and special brand endorsement projects” for the past eight years, will step up to the plate.

MILES AHEAD.
From sneakers to moccasins and ballet flats, Geox’s research into the latest shoemaking technology yields the most comfortable results. The brand’s latest collection is no different—but apart from delivering quality and utility, the footwear styles now bear the Tuv Sud Footwear Mark, a guarantee that the raw materials and manufacturing processes involved in making its shoes have not released harmful or nonbiodegradable substances into the environment. Admirable proof that the Italian brand cares not only for its clients’ feet, but for the world they tread in as well.
