Personal life

Career

In the 1990s he opened and developed fashion agencies in London (Wild and Next).[1] In 1999 Cecchi founded the record label Stefano Cecchi Records,[2] [3] [4] [5] introducing the "Buddha Bar Collection" phenomenon to Italy and launching musical architecture projects for fashion brands and luxury items,[6] [7] [8] (LVMH, Fendi, Tod’s, Swatch, Vogue, Zegna, Maserati and Diesel).

Between 2000 and 2010 he co-created several fashion brands (Hydrogen,[9] Bikinifuxia and Melody Maker) and opened concept stores (San Carlo dal 1973).[10] [11] [12]
