Wishing a very happy birthday to Riccardo Tisci today. Revisit the time Vogue spoke to the chief creative officer about his most personal collection for Burberry:
There was a moment at the beginning of the pandemic when Riccardo Tisci knew things were serious. His eight sisters – all based in Italy – came to a rare, unanimous decision in their WhatsApp group:was going to severely impact the world. Not long after that, Tisci travelled to stay with his 92-year-old mother near Lake Como, in the family home that his parents built together.
Since that time, he’s only spent Christmases there – so the chance to spend weeks cloistered in its confines with the woman he describes as the love of his life “was a dream”, he says. In the mornings, he’d work, designing a collection that he describes as his most personal yet for Burberry, and in the afternoons the two would garden and cook together, or sit at the kitchen table as he recorded stories of her life.
he later attended, first in Italy, then in London – the period offered opportunity, Tisci realised, to reassess the pace of his industry and consider the broader issues at hand. The past months have “traumatised the world, and made everyone stop and think,” he reflects. “How many people have been killed over the past 400 years? How many people have been killed the same way as George Floyd? But finally, the world – not only the Black community – has taken the time to understand.
