Milan Fashion Week 2017 – Curiel
The origin of Curiel
Gigliola Castellini Curiel, embarked on a journey in line with her cultural heritage and the extraordinary professional matrix of her mother, Raffaella Curiel. After completing her education at Milan’s Bocconi University and the Central Saint Martin College of Art and Design in London, in 1998, she launched her own ‘Gigliola Curiel’ prêt-a-porter line, which is extremely young and feminine, and is synthesis of a traditional style in which fashion is synonymous with class, culture and refinement. Currently, Gigliola is established all over the world with her collection, following an internationally recognized style.
Today, Curiel ladies are still working on the design of haute couture and high-class prêt-a-porter in their boutique in Milan, and they attend the AltaRoma high fashion show with their sophisticated designs every year. Among the distinguished loyal clients are the wife of the former president of Egypt Mubarak, the wife of financial magnate George Soros, and, many first ladies of Italy. Some clients have been loyal clients of Curiel for more than 60 years.
