The following biography contains information on Fashion Designer Anne Marie Beretta.

BIOGRAPHY
Fashion Designer ANNE MARIE BERETTA, date of creation: 1974
Style in the name of Beretta A refined art : "the architect of fashion" "Not only do I dress the body, I also dress the soul. I like the essential garment. It is mainly based on overclothes the architecture of which seems to me paramount.



Cloaks and raincoats, inside-out sheepskins, reefers and jackets represent the most famous expression
of my style. I'm looking for the right balance, giving a personal touch to every single garment even when it regards trapezoidal cuff-straps. The wide raglan or kimono-like sleeves. Edge-to-edge linings in cotton or other yarns. The leather braid stitched on the coats. Press-studs have widely been used in couture accessories since but still are the marks made by Beretta."
