[Interview] Luca Rubinacci | Stilismo Su Misura, a descendant of the first generation（2/2）

Happy customer faces

Becoming the second generation was a must, but at the same time, a desire—that's how Mariano Rubinacci explained his reasons for taking over, but for Luca, it was a no-brainer. Waking up in the morning, brushing his teeth, washing his face, and washing down a jam-laden cornetto with espresso—it was all just a part of his ordinary life.
"From a young age, my father would often bring me to the shop. I would play with the fabrics in the back room like toys, and time would fly by. But what I enjoyed even more was observing the customers. When they put on their finished suits, they all had the same proud look on their faces. Just looking at their faces made me happy. I thought, what a wonderful job this is."
After graduating from high school, Luca followed his father's advice and went to England, where he spent a total of two years training at Huntsman and Kilgour. He then spent another two years studying textiles in Como before returning home in triumph.
The Rubinacci family's craftsmanship, which began as an homage to Savile Row, achieved its initial goal when their work was permanently exhibited at the Victoria and Albert Museum, one of London's leading museums. They then changed their company name from London House to RUBINACCI . However, Mariano never forgot this debt of gratitude, and Luca understood this well.
