Prince of Prints Emilio Pucci had a passion for women, a visionary sense of style, and an eye for color and design. With these talents, he created a fashion house unlike any other. By the early ’50s, his boutique on the isle of Capri was catering to wealthy sophisticates, heiresses, and movie stars buying his “Capri pants,” silk scarves, and lightweight separates. Featuring hundreds of photographs, drawings, and candid shots from the archive of the Emilio Pucci Foundation, this new 45th Edition captures the breathtaking elegance and drama of a unique brand. ‘Pucci. Fashion Story. 45th Ed.’ is available on TASCHEN.com and in store. 1. “Gaviota IV” special edition scarf, designed for Motor Yacht Gaviota IV. © Emilio Pucci Archive, Florence 2.
