Acclaimed designer Alberta Ferretti will deliver a keynote speech at this year's Global Wellness Summit in Cesena, Italy
The Global Wellness Summit (GWS) has announced today that acclaimed fashion designer Alberta Ferretti will deliver a keynote speech on the impact wellness has had, and continues to have, on the fashion industry at this year's summit. As well as being a noted fashion designer, with her creations having appeared on multiple red carpets across the globe, Ferretti also co-founded Aeffe, a manufacturing and distribution company, in 1980. Aeffe, which Ferretti established with her brother Massimo Ferretti, produces and distributes clothing for Alberta Ferretti, Moschino, Philosophy di Lorenzo, Serafini, Cédric Charlier and Pollini, among others.
"We are absolutely thrilled to add Ms Ferretti to a robust agenda in which Italian innovation, design and style will be featured prominently," said GWS chairman and CEO Susie Ellis.
"Alberta Ferretti is a living icon who has had an incredible impact on Italy's fashion landscape, not only for the feminine-infused elegance and glamour of her designs, but also for a uniquely forward-thinking business acumen that has helped make Italian styling and design much more accessible to a global audience," Ellis added.
Taking place at Technogym Village in Cesena, Italy between 6 and 8 October, this year's GWS will focus on the theme 'Shaping the Business of Wellness' and will include keynotes from award-winning Italian architects Antonio Citterio and Matteo Thun, as well as Technogym founder Nerio Alessandri and chairman of illycaffé Andrea Illy.
