Filippo Grazioli

Filippo Grazioli is an Italian designer born in the Marche region in 1981 and appointed creative director of Missoni in 2022. Earlier work at Hermès, Givenchy and Burberry gave him experience inside several large luxury systems before he arrived at a family-founded Italian house defined by knitwear and colour.

At Missoni, his role sits within the ongoing question of how to update a recognisable heritage language. Grazioli’s work has centred on adjusting that knitwear identity through cleaner silhouettes and a more edited approach rather than discarding the house vocabulary.

At Missoni, Grazioli works from pattern, knit structure and colour, but he tends to present those elements through cleaner silhouettes and more controlled proportions. The house codes remain visible, yet they are handled with a lighter and more edited touch that keeps the surface from becoming overloaded.

That method suggests renovation rather than rupture. Technical detail and modern styling sit beside the familiar zigzag and textured surface, so the collections test how far Missoni’s vocabulary can move while still reading unmistakably as itself. Heritage is adjusted through precision rather than erased.
