The Maison Ferdinandi project comes out of years
of research, study, and rediscovery of sketches
and designs tied to my father, Vincenzo Ferdinandi’s work.
The goal is to bring back a certain idea of feminine allure that originally inspired him; something that still
feels very current.
Working through archival material and with the support
of industry specialists, and together with my daughter Martina, I’ve retraced the story and creative vision
of the Ferdinandi atelier, and its place
in the history of Italian haute couture
- reconnecting it with memory, personal experience,
and our shared DNA.
It’s a body of work with real cultural and creative weight, something that deserves to be documented,
preserved, and carried forward.
My decades of experience
as a creative director
in major advertising agencies, and later
as an entrepreneur, have taught me
how to bridge creativity and business.
I strongly believe this mindset,
combined with Martina’s background
in International Relations (born in 1990),
will be key to the success
of Maison Ferdinandi.
My goal is to build a brand that stays true
to my father’s legacy, while feeling relevant, contemporary, and forward-looking.
Maison Ferdinandi is an Italian project,
rooted in a family imprint and built around
a very clear audience: confident women,
open to experimentation and drawn
to one-of-a-kind pieces.
Women who move just as easily through
the international glamour scene as they do
in a boardroom, anywhere in the world.
These pages are a dedication to them,
as well as to my father,
and reflect our commitment
to carrying this extraordinary story forward
with passion, focus, and dedication.

Ferdinandi steps into a new chapter
of its heritage, now guided
by Ferdinando, son of the designer,
who has taken on the creative legacy
with a clear intention to bring
it forward, placing a particular focus on luxury footwear.
The collection looks back
at silhouettes originally created
in the 1950s by his father, reworking them through a contemporary lens
and shaping a cohesive vision
of a modern look that connects
past and present.

The Ferdinandi footwear collection - featuring the ‘Bunny’ and ‘The Bizarre’ lines - reinterprets Italian artisanal heritage through a playful yet refined design language,
where eccentricity and innovation coexist in unexpected harmony.
Each pair is conceived as a small object of character, crafted from elevated materials and shaped through precise, advanced techniques, balancing comfort and design in a way that feels effortless rather than engineered.
With this vision in mind,
Ferdinandi brings you back
to the spirit
of La Dolce Vita,
reaffirming a signature
that is both iconic
and newly defined.
Step by step.
