Remembering Ottavio Missoni

Ottavio Missoni 1990
“I’ve never done what was fashionable,” he told WWD in February 2011. “I didn’t want to work with preset schemes, and I paint my own way. I ended up in fashion by chance, I would never have imagined it.”
Los Angeles Fashion PR firm, P3R Publicity was sad to hear the news that Missoni co-founder, Ottavio Missoni, 92, died this morning at his home in Italy. To honor the memory of the designer who revolutionized textile patterns and created a fashion empire founded on a shoestring in 1950s, P3R takes a look at some of our favorite Missoni looks.
