About Renzo Rosso & family

Renzo Rosso owns denim powerhouse Diesel plus designer brands Maison Margiela, Viktor & Rolf and Marni through his Only the Brave holding company.

Rosso got his start at age 15, when he borrowed his mother's sewing machine and made his first piece of clothing: a pair of bell-bottoms.

He later joined denim guru Adriano Goldschmied at an Italian manufacturing company called Moltex, which he renamed Diesel in 1978.

Seven years later he bought out Goldschmied's stake and positioned Diesel as an upscale choice for denim.

His family's investment vehicle, Red Circle, owns stakes in everything from mobile app companies to eyewear manufacturers.
