Marni creative director Meryll Rogge and CEO Stefano Rosso spoke about the Italian label's direction during a discussion at the Vogue Business Global Summit in Chantilly, France.
The pair addressed the brand's focus on women's ready-to-wear and its roots in founder Consuelo Castiglioni's vision. Rogge, who joined in a recent creative reset at the OTB-owned house, highlighted her connection to Marni since buying shoes with her first paycheck in 2008 at Marc Jacobs.
Industry leaders met at the Château du Chantilly near Paris for the two-day Vogue Business Global Summit. Discussions focused on luxury retail, AI applications, and emerging growth markets amid ongoing industry changes.
