Diego Binetti sketch

When Diego Binetti was a small boy, he assisted his dressmaking mother in Buenos Aires, his hometown.  After high school, he went on to the Miami International University of Art and Design, then did a  four-year study at Instituto Marangoni in Milan.  Deigo has worked with Bulgari and Jill Stuart. In 2001, he launched his own line.

This is the first year that Binetti is showing under the tents at New Yorki Fashion Week. A Betty will be there  on September 11, to give you the deets.

Diego says, “I design for a woman who owns her domain and has a passion for life. I have a love and devotion that I invest into my work every day which excited me and keeps me going. I am excited to show in Lincoln Center and think that this season will be a hit for all!"

His inspiration for his spring collection is Mother Earth. He's using  earthy color tones like beige, yellows, blues and greens.

Beautiful vision with exquisite detail on the sketch shown. I love a designer with passion for clothes to inspire a woman to want to wear them and wear them often. Earth tones and blues and greens are easy to want on your body and make me feel alive and renewed each time I wear them. ;)
