Note * Achille Maramotti began designing couture clothing in 1947, and officially established the House of Max Mara in 1951. The "Mara" cam from his surname, while "Max" referred to Count Max, a local character who was seldom sober but always stylish. Maramotti was one of the first to see that the future of fashion lay in the mass production of designer quality clothes. He was also keen to emphasise the brand of Max Mara ahead of the names of individual designers, even thought he employed future big names such as Karl Lagerfeld, Jean Charles de Castelbajac, Dolce & Gabbana and Narciso Rodriguez. The company remains in the hands of the family and they like to maintain a veil of secrecy about the activities of the company.
