Nov. 19, 2024 in Fashion & Style by Charlotte Sinclair

Massimo Osti, the visionary founder behind renowned fashion brands Stone Island and C.P. Company, has left an indelible mark on the world of design and military-inspired apparel. Enthusiasts of these iconic brands are likely familiar with Osti’s original archive, nestled in Bologna, Italy, where the founder lived and worked. Traditionally, access to this treasure trove has been limited, with small groups granted entry only a few times a year, offering a rare glimpse into Osti’s creative genius, including the ability to touch and examine the intricate details of his designs and his impressive collection of military garments, including Soviet-era pieces.
