Antonio Marras: “The best compliment? A client thanking for sea sand in his pockets”

The eclectic and uncoventional Italian designer Antonio Marras spoke about himself, his love for art, craftsmanship and unconditioned love for his work and people.

During the latest edition of Lineapelle in February 2026, an international trade fair specializing in leather goods and accessories, Antonio Marras, renowned Italian fashion designer and costume designer, often reluctant to give interviews, met with international leather goods insiders and students during “Fashion, Market, and Future,” a public meeting hosted by Mariella Milani, Italian fashion journalist.
