On what would have been her 100th birthday, Vanity Fair sat down with the late Ferragamo’s daughter Giovanna Gentile to discuss her mother's legacy and what’s next.
When I began working, there weren’t many women running companies in Italy. Things are different now and I am glad, although I am aware what this entails. All women work, the only difference is that some do their work outside the home. In any case, homemakers need to keep the books like an accountant, decorate like an interior designer, cook like a chef and run their home like a CEO, and they must do all this while also working as a wife and mother.
In honor of what would have been her 100th birthday, The Ferragamo Museum, the Foundation Ferragamo and the Salvatore Ferragamo company will commemorate her legacy with a series of initiatives, the largest being an exhibition.
Below Gentile discusses how she and her brothers are honoring their family legacy and what's next for the brand.
