This week we’re revisiting Nicole's conversation with Francesco Risso, the creative director at Marni. He just showed his latest collection in Milan, and Vogue’s own Tiziana Cardini called it “a testament to the power of creativity.”

For the past nine years, Risso has transformed the formerly family-owned Italian label launched by Consuelo Castiglioni in 1994 from a purveyor of sophisticated, off-beat clothes for artsy women to a laboratory for experimental and innovative forms of creative expression.

Risso delves into his years at Prada, his unconventional upbringing, and as a special bonus, you’ll also learn the meaning behind his Instagram handle @asliceofbambi.
