Founded in 1934 by Luigi Fedeli, Fedeli started as an artisanal workshop of felt hats. Over the decades, it has evolved into one of the most distinguished names in Italian luxury knitwear, while remaining true to its origins: an unwavering pursuit of quality, guided by expertise, precision, and deep respect for tradition.
In the 1960s, Fedeli introduced innovative machinery for the processing of cashmere, the noblest of fibres. This marked a defining moment in the company’s history, establishing it as the first Italian manufacturer specialised in cashmere knitwear.
To this day, each garment embodies a refined balance between technological innovation and artisanal savoir-faire, shaped by rigorous standards that ensure both uniqueness and timeless character.
In 1979, Luigi “Gigi” Fedeli, representing the third generation, joined the company and brought with him a renewed strategic vision. Under his direction, Fedeli expanded into a complete ready-to-wear offering, introducing total look collections for both men and women.
Alongside knitwear, the swim&wear collection emerged as a distinctive expression of the brand: swim trunks presented in over 400 original patterns each season, alongside jersey and piquet polos crafted from organic cotton. A combination of entrepreneurial insight and creative sensibility continues to define this chapter of the company’s evolution.
In 2016, Niccolò Fedeli joined the company as the fourth generation, with the intention of preserving its heritage while opening new paths for the future.
In 2019, he led the opening of the Fedeli showroom in Manhattan, marking a significant step in the brand’s international journey and reinforcing its presence across global markets.
In the heart of Monza, every stage of production is carefully overseen, safeguarding the most authentic expression of Made in Italy. Each garment is the result of a controlled supply chain and a constant commitment to excellence.
