Trentenne, originario di Brescia dove ha fatto i suoi studio presso l'Istituto di Moda Industriale, Vittorio Branchizio e' specializzato in maglieria da uomo di alta qualita'. Vastissima e' la sua esperienza tecnica nel settore visto che dall'eta di 21 anni collabora con D-Exterior, brand di maglieria da donna, che gli ha permesso nel tempo di sviluppare uno stile personale e un approccio internazionale al suo design. Fonda l'omonimo brand di magliera da uomo nel 2013 con gusto spiccatamente postindustriale caratterizzato da geometrie e texture. La collezione con cui ha vinto a Firenze nasce in collaborazione con tre artisti: il pittore Pascal Pillard, l'artista origami Uros Mihic e l'artista Sergio Perrero.
