Founded in 1977 by the eponymous German prince and socialite, the Egon von Furstenberg brand began after the former banker transitioned to fashion in New York. Initially designing for Macy's, he first launched a collection for plus-size women before establishing his name with a menswear line of shirts and pullovers. The brand, which later moved its headquarters to Milan, became known for uniting classic, elegant tailoring with a touch of modern eccentricity. Von Furstenberg's own glamorous persona and aristocratic heritage—his mother was from the Fiat-founding Agnelli family—were inseparable from the label's identity.
