Achille Maramotti began designing couture clothing in 1947 and established the house of MaxMara in 1951. The brand has employed many designers who have gone on to become successful designers in their own right including Karl Largerfeld, Dolce & Gabbana and Narciso Rodriguez. MaxMara has 35 labels including Studio, Weekend & Sportmax which each have their own distinct personalities, but the overriding MaxMara signature is one of chic grown up clothes.

The Sportmax label is MaxMara’s most fashion forward label producing glamorous but wearable high fashion collections.
