In 1950 Sergio Rossi worked along side his father, a shoemaker in Italy's Romagna region. Shortly after he left for Milan to hone his craft. It was there in the 60's that he first met Gianni Versace who became a long time friend and collaborator.

In 2004 the Gucci Group owns 100% of the company. Edmundo Castillo became creative director in 2006 and the Rossi revolution was back on. Considered as important and exciting as Manolo or Louboutin, the Sergio line is always keeping us on our toes.
