Milan/Paris, October 4^th 2011

Vionnet Spa and Rodolfo Paglialunga have agreed by common consent to terminate their collaboration that initiated in January 2009 and relaunched successfully the House founded by Madeleine Vionnet in 1912.

Rodolfo Paglialunga, after his strong and passionate time in Vionnet is now considering other personal and professional paths.

Vionnet desires to thank Rodolfo for his thorough commitment, his extreme competence and his inspiring creativity, which he made available while in the Company. We wish him the best for his future.

“Creating 10 collections with Vionnet has been for me an enriching experience both from human and professional sides. I would like to thank the Company in its whole for the passion and dedication daily devoted to the project.” (Rodolfo Paglialunga)

“Rodolfo Paglialunga has been able to reinterpret successfully the rebirth of Vionnet, putting Madeleine Vionnet’s heritage and work within a contemporary perspective.  I am very grateful to Rodolfo for the great job done with us and wish the best for him.” (Matteo Marzotto)
