[ 3 ]  Along with his wife  Rosita , he was part of the group of designers who launched Italian  ready-to-wear  in the 1950s, thereby ensuring the global success of  Italian fashion . [ 4 ] Ottavio Missoni was born in  Dubrovnik, Croatia , on the  Dalmatian  coast. His mother, Teresa de' Vidovich di Capocesto e  Rogoznica , was a Dalmatian Countess while his father, Vittorio Missoni, was a  Friulian  sea captain who moved to Dalmatia while it was under Austrian rule. [ 5 ] [ 6 ]  Through his mother he was a close cousin of Italian politician  Renzo de' Vidovich . He was educated in  Zadar ,  Trieste , and  Milan . [ 7 ] Sporting achievements [ edit ] Missoni joined the Italian National Track Team in 1937 at age 16. He won the individual  national championship  four times. [ 8 ] [ 1 ]  He also competed with the Italian team in the  1948 Summer Olympics . [ 1 ]  At the age of 88 he was still practising sports such as  shot put  and  javelin throw . [ 5 ] Missoni served as an  infantryman  during  World War II . In 1942, he fought in the  Battle of El Alamein , where he was captured by the  Desert Rats  and served out the remainder of the War in an English  prisoner-of-war camp . [ 5 ] Rosita Jelmini  and Ottavio Missoni in 1975 While in London for the Olympics, Missoni met the 16-year-old  Rosita Jelmini , an English student from  Golasecca , Italy. [ 10 ]  She was in the audience at Wembley at the time he was running in the finals. [ 11 ]   They married five years later on 18 April 1953. Their first son,  Vittorio , was born on 25 April 1954. Luca, their second son, was born on 4 July 1956. Their only daughter, Angela was born in 1960.\n After the war, Ottavio and his team-mate  Giorgio Oberweger  launched an  activewear  business in Trieste making wool  tracksuits , which they called Venjulia suits. [ 1 ]  The tracksuits used details such as English ribbing and drop-stitching, and featured  zippered  legs, a detail which Missoni has been credited with inventing. [ 12 ]  The success of the Venjulia suits, which took into account the need of athletes for functional, warm garments enabling freedom of movement, led to their being worn by the Italian Olympic team in 1948. [ 13 ] In 1953, following his marriage to Rosita (whose family ran a shawl-making business), the Missonis set up Maglificio Jolly, a  machine-knitwear  workshop in  Gallarate . [ 5 ]  The Missoni's experimentations with machine-knitting led to the discovery that clothing-weight fabrics made using machines originally designed for shawls and bedspreads could be surprisingly lightweight. [ 10 ]  They supplied designs to the department stores Biki and later,  La Rinascente  in Milan, where in 1958, the first Missoni-labelled garments, a line of colourful vertically striped  shirtdresses , were displayed in the window. [ 4 ]  Ottavio's experience as an activewear designer and manufacturer was applied to his and Rosita's designs, [ 14 ]  which contributed significantly to the development of Italian  sportswear  as a challenge to the American industry. [ 15 ] In 1965,  Anna Piaggi  covered Missoni in an article for  Arianna , a magazine published by  Mondadori . [ 4 ] [ 16 ]  She continued to actively promote Missoni through her long career as a fashion journalist, including writing their press releases whilst at  Vogue Italia  in the 1980s. [ 17 ]  This helped bring Missoni to the attention of the wider world, as did a joint collection with  Emmanuelle Khanh  in 1965. [ 11 ] They held their first catwalk show in 1966, and the following year, presented a show at the  Palazzo Pitti  in Florence. This show proved controversial due to the unplanned  transparency  of the models' clothing under the lights, revealing a lack of underwear and leading to comparisons to the  Crazy Horse cabaret . [ 4 ] [ 11 ]  Although the see-through look was presented by  Yves Saint Laurent  the following year, the Missonis were not invited back to Florence. [ 4 ]  However, the scandal gave them immense publicity, and helped lead to the development of Milan as a fashion capital when the press followed the Missonis back to Milan. [ 10 ]  The Missonis went on to feature in many leading fashion publications, including  Women's Wear Daily ,  Vogue ,  Marie Claire ,  Elle , and  Harper's Bazaar , and were championed by influential editors such as  Diana Vreeland  and Piaggi. [ 11 ] In 1970, Missoni opened their first in-store boutique at  Bloomingdale's  in New York, [ 5 ]  and their first directly owned boutique in Milan in 1976. [ 11 ] Ottavio was the colourist and pattern designer whose  watercolour paintings  and  gouaches  formed the basis of Missoni textiles, whilst his wife developed the cuts and shapes of their garments. [ 11 ]  Ottavio's designs, which combined multi-coloured  zigzag , stripe, check and wave patterns in unexpected colour combinations, were highly influential, and were recognised as having artistic merit. [ 11 ]  In 1975, an exhibition of Ottavio's textiles and related paintings, curated by Renato Cardazzo, was held in Venice, and Ferruccio Landi wrote an article titled \"Missoni, a Work of Art, Pullover Size\". [ 18 ]  In 1974,  Jennifer Hocking  of  Harper's Bazaar  and  Queen  selected male and female ensembles by Missoni as the  Dress of the Year  for the  Fashion Museum, Bath . [ 19 ]  In 1976 Ottavio was named one of the ten most elegant men in the world, sharing the list with  Robert Redford  and  Charles, Prince of Wales . [ 18 ] To mark the 25th anniversary of Missoni's founding, a retrospective was held in 1978 at the  Rotonda della Besana  in Milan, and later hosted by the  Whitney Museum of American Art  in New York, the first time the Whitney had hosted a fashion exhibition. [ 18 ] [ 20 ] In 1983, Ottavio and Rosita designed their first stage costumes for a production of  Lucia di Lammermoor , starring  Luciano Pavarotti , at the  La Scala  opera house in Milan. [ 18 ] In 1991 an exhibition in  Yūrakuchō , Tokyo, was held of Ottavio's tapestries, the first time they had been displayed in Japan. [ 18 ] Later life and death [ edit ] In 1997 Ottavio and Rosita passed the Missoni business to their children. Vittorio acted as marketing director, Angela became creative director, and Luca holds a technical role, having created designs for the Aeros dance troupe and an installation for the  Expo 2005 . [ 4 ] [ 18 ]  Since the handover, Missoni has expanded into a lifestyle brand which includes furniture, car interiors, a chain of hotels, and collaborations with companies such as  Target . [ 10 ] [ 11 ] In 2003, when Missoni marked their 50th year of business,  Suzy Menkes  wrote a tribute in the  International Herald Tribune  stating how the \"best-beloved\" Missonis represented \"one big happy local family of hands-on wizards\". [ 18 ] On 4 January 2013, Missoni's eldest son, CEO  Vittorio Missoni , his wife Maurizia, two other passengers and two crew  disappeared in an airplane  near the  Los Roques islands  near  Venezuela . Wreckage of the submerged plane was discovered by a U.S. oceanographic vessel in June but no identification was able to be made. [ 11 ]  On 22 October 2013, the deaths of Vittorio and the other passengers on the plane were confirmed by the Italian news service and the city of Caracas' chief prosecutor Ortega, after meeting with the victims' families. The bodies were found inside the aircraft, except for the pilot, with DNA samples used for identification. The authorities are attempting to raise the wreckage to determine the cause of the crash.\n [ 21 ] On 1 May 2013, twelve days after marking his and Rosita's 60th wedding anniversary, Ottavio was taken to hospital, but at his request, he went home to be with his family in Sumirago, where during the night of 8 and 9 May, the 92-year-old Ottavio died \"serenely\".

This show proved controversial due to the unplanned [transparency](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/See-through_clothing \"See-through clothing\") of the models' clothing under the lights, revealing a lack of underwear and leading to comparisons to the [Crazy Horse cabaret](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Crazy_Horse_\\(cabaret\\) \"Crazy Horse

look was presented by [Yves Saint Laurent](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yves_Saint_Laurent_\\(designer\\) \"Yves Saint Laurent (designer)\") the following year, the Missonis were not invited back to Florence.[\\[4\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-sfobit-4) However, the scandal gave them immense publicity, and helped lead to the development of Milan as a fashion capital when the press followed the Missonis back to Milan.[\\[10\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-nyobit-10) The Missonis went on to feature in many leading fashion

\"Diana Vreeland\") and Piaggi.[\\[11\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11)\n\nIn 1970, Missoni opened their first in-store boutique at [Bloomingdale's](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bloomingdale%27s \"Bloomingdale's\") in New York,[\\[5\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-indobit-5) and their first directly owned boutique in Milan in 1976.[\\[11\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11)\n\nOttavio was the colourist and pattern designer whose [watercolour paintings](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Watercolour_painting \"Watercolour painting\") and [gouaches](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gouache \"Gouache\") formed the basis of Missoni textiles, whilst his wife developed the cuts and shapes of their garments.[\\[11\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) Ottavio's designs, which combined multi-coloured [zigzag](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Zigzag \"Zigzag\"), stripe, check and wave patterns in unexpected colour combinations, were highly influential, and were recognised as having artistic merit.[\\[11\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) In 1975, an exhibition of Ottavio's textiles and related paintings, curated by Renato Cardazzo, was held in Venice, and Ferruccio Landi wrote an article titled \"Missoni, a Work of Art, Pullover Size\".[\\[18\\]](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-kortil-18) In 1974, [Jennifer Hocking](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jennifer_Hocking \"Jennifer Hocking\") of *Harper's Bazaar* and *[Queen](https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Queen_\\(magazine\\) \"Queen (magazine)\")*

Boilerpipe Text	Ottavio Missoni (11 February 1921 – 9 May 2013) was an Italian businessman, founder of the Italian fashion label Missoni and an Olympic hurdler who competed in the 1948 Summer Olympics . [ 3 ] Along with his wife Rosita , he was part of the group of designers who launched Italian ready-to-wear in the 1950s, thereby ensuring the global success of Italian fashion . [ 4 ] Ottavio Missoni was born in Dubrovnik, Croatia , on the Dalmatian coast. His mother, Teresa de' Vidovich di Capocesto e Rogoznica , was a Dalmatian Countess while his father, Vittorio Missoni, was a Friulian sea captain who moved to Dalmatia while it was under Austrian rule. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Through his mother he was a close cousin of Italian politician Renzo de' Vidovich . He was educated in Zadar , Trieste , and Milan . [ 7 ] Sporting achievements [ edit ] Missoni joined the Italian National Track Team in 1937 at age 16. He won the individual national championship four times. [ 8 ] [ 1 ] He also competed with the Italian team in the 1948 Summer Olympics . [ 1 ] At the age of 88 he was still practising sports such as shot put and javelin throw . [ 5 ] Missoni served as an infantryman during World War II . In 1942, he fought in the Battle of El Alamein , where he was captured by the Desert Rats and served out the remainder of the War in an English prisoner-of-war camp . [ 5 ] Rosita Jelmini and Ottavio Missoni in 1975 While in London for the Olympics, Missoni met the 16-year-old Rosita Jelmini , an English student from Golasecca , Italy. [ 10 ] She was in the audience at Wembley at the time he was running in the finals. [ 11 ] They married five years later on 18 April 1953. Their first son, Vittorio , was born on 25 April 1954. Luca, their second son, was born on 4 July 1956. Their only daughter, Angela was born in 1960. After the war, Ottavio and his team-mate Giorgio Oberweger launched an activewear business in Trieste making wool tracksuits , which they called Venjulia suits. [ 1 ] The tracksuits used details such as English ribbing and drop-stitching, and featured zippered legs, a detail which Missoni has been credited with inventing. [ 12 ] The success of the Venjulia suits, which took into account the need of athletes for functional, warm garments enabling freedom of movement, led to their being worn by the Italian Olympic team in 1948. [ 13 ] In 1953, following his marriage to Rosita (whose family ran a shawl-making business), the Missonis set up Maglificio Jolly, a machine-knitwear workshop in Gallarate . [ 5 ] The Missoni's experimentations with machine-knitting led to the discovery that clothing-weight fabrics made using machines originally designed for shawls and bedspreads could be surprisingly lightweight. [ 10 ] They supplied designs to the department stores Biki and later, La Rinascente in Milan, where in 1958, the first Missoni-labelled garments, a line of colourful vertically striped shirtdresses , were displayed in the window. [ 4 ] Ottavio's experience as an activewear designer and manufacturer was applied to his and Rosita's designs, [ 14 ] which contributed significantly to the development of Italian sportswear as a challenge to the American industry. [ 15 ] In 1965, Anna Piaggi covered Missoni in an article for Arianna , a magazine published by Mondadori . [ 4 ] [ 16 ] She continued to actively promote Missoni through her long career as a fashion journalist, including writing their press releases whilst at Vogue Italia in the 1980s. [ 17 ] This helped bring Missoni to the attention of the wider world, as did a joint collection with Emmanuelle Khanh in 1965. [ 11 ] They held their first catwalk show in 1966, and the following year, presented a show at the Palazzo Pitti in Florence. This show proved controversial due to the unplanned transparency of the models' clothing under the lights, revealing a lack of underwear and leading to comparisons to the Crazy Horse cabaret . [ 4 ] [ 11 ] Although the see-through look was presented by Yves Saint Laurent the following year, the Missonis were not invited back to Florence. [ 4 ] However, the scandal gave them immense publicity, and helped lead to the development of Milan as a fashion capital when the press followed the Missonis back to Milan. [ 10 ] The Missonis went on to feature in many leading fashion publications, including Women's Wear Daily , Vogue , Marie Claire , Elle , and Harper's Bazaar , and were championed by influential editors such as Diana Vreeland and Piaggi. [ 11 ] In 1970, Missoni opened their first in-store boutique at Bloomingdale's in New York, [ 5 ] and their first directly owned boutique in Milan in 1976. [ 11 ] Ottavio was the colourist and pattern designer whose watercolour paintings and gouaches formed the basis of Missoni textiles, whilst his wife developed the cuts and shapes of their garments. [ 11 ] Ottavio's designs, which combined multi-coloured zigzag , stripe, check and wave patterns in unexpected colour combinations, were highly influential, and were recognised as having artistic merit. [ 11 ] In 1975, an exhibition of Ottavio's textiles and related paintings, curated by Renato Cardazzo, was held in Venice, and Ferruccio Landi wrote an article titled "Missoni, a Work of Art, Pullover Size". [ 18 ] In 1974, Jennifer Hocking of Harper's Bazaar and Queen selected male and female ensembles by Missoni as the Dress of the Year for the Fashion Museum, Bath . [ 19 ] In 1976 Ottavio was named one of the ten most elegant men in the world, sharing the list with Robert Redford and Charles, Prince of Wales . [ 18 ] To mark the 25th anniversary of Missoni's founding, a retrospective was held in 1978 at the Rotonda della Besana in Milan, and later hosted by the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, the first time the Whitney had hosted a fashion exhibition. [ 18 ] [ 20 ] In 1983, Ottavio and Rosita designed their first stage costumes for a production of Lucia di Lammermoor , starring Luciano Pavarotti , at the La Scala opera house in Milan. [ 18 ] In 1991 an exhibition in Yūrakuchō , Tokyo, was held of Ottavio's tapestries, the first time they had been displayed in Japan. [ 18 ] Later life and death [ edit ] In 1997 Ottavio and Rosita passed the Missoni business to their children. Vittorio acted as marketing director, Angela became creative director, and Luca holds a technical role, having created designs for the Aeros dance troupe and an installation for the Expo 2005 . [ 4 ] [ 18 ] Since the handover, Missoni has expanded into a lifestyle brand which includes furniture, car interiors, a chain of hotels, and collaborations with companies such as Target . [ 10 ] [ 11 ] In 2003, when Missoni marked their 50th year of business, Suzy Menkes wrote a tribute in the International Herald Tribune stating how the "best-beloved" Missonis represented "one big happy local family of hands-on wizards". [ 18 ] On 4 January 2013, Missoni's eldest son, CEO Vittorio Missoni , his wife Maurizia, two other passengers and two crew disappeared in an airplane near the Los Roques islands near Venezuela . Wreckage of the submerged plane was discovered by a U.S. oceanographic vessel in June but no identification was able to be made. [ 11 ] On 22 October 2013, the deaths of Vittorio and the other passengers on the plane were confirmed by the Italian news service and the city of Caracas' chief prosecutor Ortega, after meeting with the victims' families. The bodies were found inside the aircraft, except for the pilot, with DNA samples used for identification. The authorities are attempting to raise the wreckage to determine the cause of the crash. [ 21 ] On 1 May 2013, twelve days after marking his and Rosita's 60th wedding anniversary, Ottavio was taken to hospital, but at his request, he went home to be with his family in Sumirago, where during the night of 8 and 9 May, the 92-year-old Ottavio died "serenely".

In 1942, he fought in the [Battle of El Alamein](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Battle_of_El_Alamein "Second Battle of El Alamein"), where he was captured by the [Desert Rats](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert_Rats "Desert Rats") and served out the remainder of the War in an English [prisoner-of-war camp](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prisoner-of-war_camp "Prisoner-of-war camp").[\[5\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-indobit-5) ## Marriage \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ottavio_Missoni&action=edit&section=4 "Edit section: Marriage")\] [![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3d/Rosita_Jelmini_and_Ottavio_Missoni_1975.jpg/330px-Rosita_Jelmini_and_Ottavio_Missoni_1975.jpg)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Rosita_Jelmini_and_Ottavio_Missoni_1975.jpg) [Rosita Jelmini](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosita_Missoni "Rosita Missoni") and Ottavio Missoni in 1975 While in London for the Olympics, Missoni met the 16-year-old [Rosita Jelmini](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosita_Missoni "Rosita Missoni"), an English student from [Golasecca](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golasecca "Golasecca"), Italy.[\[10\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-nyobit-10) She was in the audience at Wembley at the time he was running in the finals.[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) They married five years later on 18 April 1953. Their first son, [Vittorio](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vittorio_Missoni "Vittorio Missoni"), was born on 25 April 1954. Luca, their second son, was born on 4 July 1956. Their only daughter, Angela was born in 1960. ## Fashion \[[edit](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ottavio_Missoni&action=edit&section=5 "Edit section: Fashion")\] After the war, Ottavio and his team-mate [Giorgio Oberweger](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giorgio_Oberweger "Giorgio Oberweger") launched an [activewear](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sportswear_\(activewear\) "Sportswear (activewear)") business in Trieste making wool [tracksuits](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracksuit "Tracksuit"), which they called Venjulia suits.[\[1\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-sportsref-1) The tracksuits used details such as English ribbing and drop-stitching, and featured [zippered](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zipper "Zipper") legs, a detail which Missoni has been credited with inventing.[\[12\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-zipper-12) The success of the Venjulia suits, which took into account the need of athletes for functional, warm garments enabling freedom of movement, led to their being worn by the Italian Olympic team in 1948.[\[13\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-13) In 1953, following his marriage to Rosita (whose family ran a shawl-making business), the Missonis set up Maglificio Jolly, a [machine-knitwear](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knitting_machine "Knitting machine") workshop in [Gallarate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gallarate "Gallarate").[\[5\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-indobit-5) The Missoni's experimentations with machine-knitting led to the discovery that clothing-weight fabrics made using machines originally designed for shawls and bedspreads could be surprisingly lightweight.[\[10\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-nyobit-10) They supplied designs to the department stores Biki and later, [La Rinascente](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Rinascente "La Rinascente") in Milan, where in 1958, the first Missoni-labelled garments, a line of colourful vertically striped [shirtdresses](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shirtdress "Shirtdress"), were displayed in the window.[\[4\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-sfobit-4) Ottavio's experience as an activewear designer and manufacturer was applied to his and Rosita's designs,[\[14\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-14) which contributed significantly to the development of Italian [sportswear](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sportswear_\(fashion\) "Sportswear (fashion)") as a challenge to the American industry.[\[15\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-vs2-15) In 1965, [Anna Piaggi](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna_Piaggi "Anna Piaggi") covered Missoni in an article for Arianna, a magazine published by [Mondadori](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnoldo_Mondadori_Editore "Arnoldo Mondadori Editore").[\[4\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-sfobit-4)[\[16\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-16) She continued to actively promote Missoni through her long career as a fashion journalist, including writing their press releases whilst at [Vogue Italia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vogue_Italia "Vogue Italia") in the 1980s.[\[17\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-17) This helped bring Missoni to the attention of the wider world, as did a joint collection with [Emmanuelle Khanh](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emmanuelle_Khanh "Emmanuelle Khanh") in 1965.[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) They held their first catwalk show in 1966, and the following year, presented a show at the [Palazzo Pitti](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palazzo_Pitti "Palazzo Pitti") in Florence. This show proved controversial due to the unplanned [transparency](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/See-through_clothing "See-through clothing") of the models' clothing under the lights, revealing a lack of underwear and leading to comparisons to the [Crazy Horse cabaret](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crazy_Horse_\(cabaret\) "Crazy Horse (cabaret)").[\[4\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-sfobit-4)[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) Although the see-through look was presented by [Yves Saint Laurent](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yves_Saint_Laurent_\(designer\) "Yves Saint Laurent (designer)") the following year, the Missonis were not invited back to Florence.[\[4\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-sfobit-4) However, the scandal gave them immense publicity, and helped lead to the development of Milan as a fashion capital when the press followed the Missonis back to Milan.[\[10\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-nyobit-10) The Missonis went on to feature in many leading fashion publications, including [Women's Wear Daily](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_Wear_Daily "Women's Wear Daily"), [Vogue](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vogue_\(magazine\) "Vogue (magazine)"), [Marie Claire](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Claire "Marie Claire"), [Elle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elle_\(magazine\) "Elle (magazine)"), and [Harper's Bazaar](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harper%27s_Bazaar "Harper's Bazaar"), and were championed by influential editors such as [Diana Vreeland](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Vreeland "Diana Vreeland") and Piaggi.[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) In 1970, Missoni opened their first in-store boutique at [Bloomingdale's](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloomingdale%27s "Bloomingdale's") in New York,[\[5\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-indobit-5) and their first directly owned boutique in Milan in 1976.[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) Ottavio was the colourist and pattern designer whose [watercolour paintings](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watercolour_painting "Watercolour painting") and [gouaches](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gouache "Gouache") formed the basis of Missoni textiles, whilst his wife developed the cuts and shapes of their garments.[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) Ottavio's designs, which combined multi-coloured [zigzag](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zigzag "Zigzag"), stripe, check and wave patterns in unexpected colour combinations, were highly influential, and were recognised as having artistic merit.[\[11\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-telobit-11) In 1975, an exhibition of Ottavio's textiles and related paintings, curated by Renato Cardazzo, was held in Venice, and Ferruccio Landi wrote an article titled "Missoni, a Work of Art, Pullover Size".[\[18\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-kortil-18) In 1974, [Jennifer Hocking](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jennifer_Hocking "Jennifer Hocking") of Harper's Bazaar and [Queen](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_\(magazine\) "Queen (magazine)") selected male and female ensembles by Missoni as the [Dress of the Year](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dress_of_the_Year "Dress of the Year") for the [Fashion Museum, Bath](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fashion_Museum,_Bath "Fashion Museum, Bath").[\[19\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-19) In 1976 Ottavio was named one of the ten most elegant men in the world, sharing the list with [Robert Redford](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Redford "Robert Redford") and [Charles, Prince of Wales](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles,_Prince_of_Wales "Charles, Prince of Wales").[\[18\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-kortil-18) To mark the 25th anniversary of Missoni's founding, a retrospective was held in 1978 at the [Rotonda della Besana](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotonda_della_Besana "Rotonda della Besana") in Milan, and later hosted by the [Whitney Museum of American Art](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitney_Museum_of_American_Art "Whitney Museum of American Art") in New York, the first time the Whitney had hosted a fashion exhibition.[\[18\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-kortil-18)[\[20\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-whoswho-20) In 1983, Ottavio and Rosita designed their first stage costumes for a production of [Lucia di Lammermoor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucia_di_Lammermoor "Lucia di Lammermoor"), starring [Luciano Pavarotti](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luciano_Pavarotti "Luciano Pavarotti"), at the [La Scala](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Scala "La Scala") opera house in Milan.[\[18\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-kortil-18) In 1991 an exhibition in [Yūrakuchō](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y%C5%ABrakuch%C5%8D "Yūrakuchō"), Tokyo, was held of Ottavio's tapestries, the first time they had been displayed in Japan.[\[18\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottavio_Missoni#cite_note-kortil-18) ## Awards
