Good evening Yes I had the pleasure of meeting and choosing Michela Finaurini for Agnona . I was in charge of the entire style, product and modelling department and I wanted someone who could help me find new materials with exclusive studies. Michela, besides having a very refined taste in colours, carries on her work with absolute devotion. She works very well with creative directors, her sensitivity leads her to research fabrics and prints in line with requests, creating research boards and trends to share with the style . She is an artist of fabrics and colours . Very responsible and respectful of budgets, she has an excellent relationship with all the suppliers who appreciate her and love working with her ! I'd say she's a true professional . I am at your disposal for any further information Good evening Natalina Stercoli
