Cav. Lav. Brunello Cucinelli Executive Chairman and Creative Director

Brunello Cucinelli was born into a peasant family in Castel Rigone, province of Perugia, in 1953.

After obtaining a diploma as building surveyor, he enrolled in the faculty of Engineering but then dropped out. In 1978 he set up a small company and captivated the market with his idea of dying cashmere.
Since when he was a boy, he witnessed his father working in an unwelcoming environment and became a close observer of the world, thus developing his dream to promote a concept of work that ensured respect for “the human being’s moral and economic” dignity. This is a key element to understand his personality and the success of his business, which Brunello considers not only as a wealth-generating entity, but also as a framework to develop and nurture his dream of a capitalism that enhances the human being.

His knowledge of the great figures of the past has always fed his dreams and ideals, but he is always looking ahead towards the distant future, and each action and accomplishment of his is designed to last over the centuries.

In 1982, after marrying Federica Benda, Brunello moved to “Solomeo”, which became the venue to make his dreams come true and a great workshop to build his success as an entrepreneur and humanist.
The increasingly international market welcomed his quality products warmly and enabled him to implement his ideals.
In 1985 he purchased the fourteenth-century tumbledown castle in the hamlet and made it into his corporate headquarters; in 2000, with a view to meet the market’s growing demand with adequate production facilities, he acquired and refurbished an existing plant at the foot of the Solomeo hill instead of building new facilities.

The “Forum of the Art”, including the Aurelian Library, the Gymnasium, the Amphitheatre and the Theatre, was built in 2008 and became the ideal venue for culture and art.
The desire to list the company in the Milan Stock Exchange was born around this time and became reality in 2012. This move, too, was not driven by financial reasons alone, as Brunello saw a wider participation in his business activity as an opportunity to spread his ideals of a new capitalism, a truly “humanistic capitalism”.

The experience of the Forum of the Arts, built exclusively by Umbrian master craftsmen, spawned the idea of the “Solomeo School of Arts and Crafts”, which was established in 2013. Brunello’s vision entails that the memory of an important humanistic factor such as craftsmanship is preserved and passed on to future generations; therefore the school is the workshop where this aspiration becomes reality.

In 2014, the “Project for Beauty” was presented in Milan, an initiative supported by the Brunello and Federica Cucinelli Foundation; the project entails the creation of three huge parks at the foot of the Solomeo hill (the Agricultural Park, the Secular Youth Club Park and the Industry Park) recovering part of the property occupied by old abandoned factories and using it to grow trees, orchards and lawns. This initiative symbolizes the crucial value of earth, “from which all things are”, as Xenophon put it. With this project Brunello highlights the duty to restore the “dignity of the land” and he shows that “Beauty will save the world” whenever the world will in turn save Beauty.

The Brunello Cucinelli S.p.A. currently employs approximately 2500 people and cooperates with around 4000 subcontractors. Nobody clocks in or out. The working time is from 8 a.m. to 5.30 p.m. with a long lunch break. It is forbidden to work after 5.30 p.m..

In 2010, the University of Studies of Perugia awarded Brunello Cucinelli an honoris causa Master's Degree in "Philosophy and Ethics of Human Relations," honoring his high activity as a humanist entrepreneur. In the same year, he was appointed Cavaliere del Lavoro by the President of the Italian Republic.

In 2017, the influential Kiel Institute awarded him the "Global Economy Prize for the World Economy" for being able to "[...] perfectly embodies the figure of the Honorable Merchant."

The following year, the University of Studies of Messina, deeming Brunello Cucinelli to be a "concrete thinker, cultural promoter and true patron of our times," awarded him a Doctorate of Philosophy honoris causa, and in the same year he was awarded the prestigious appointment of Cavaliere di Gran Croce al Merito della Repubblica Italiana.

In 2021, he received in London the "Designer of the Year" award by the leading British men's fashion magazine "GQ," confirming his constant humanistic commitment as a designer and entrepreneur and for projects for Human Sustainability.

In 2022, the University of Rome "Sapienza" awarded him the title of Doctor of Research Honoris Causa in "Management, Banking and Commodity Sciences," an honor intended to pay tribute to the "particularity of his entrepreneurial activity, which has always aimed to provide work with complete respect for the moral and economic dignity of human beings."

In 2023, the Neiman Marcus Luxury Department Store awarded Brunello Cucinelli the "Neiman Marcus Award for Distinguished Service in the Field of Fashion," an international prize that honors individuals in the world who have most influenced Fashion.
