Becoming creative director, he started a change of trend, producing not only gloves but also other items, from leather accessories such as wallets, suitcases, belts and shoes, to clothing in general, all marked by the symbol of the Maison, the greyhound. In the 1980s the first prêt-à-porter collection was born, flanked by other products, such as perfumes, home accessories and a line of haute couture jeans. However, it is the 90s that consecrate Trussardi as a highly sought-after international brand both in Italy and in Japan and in America.
