Piero Gesualdi from Mondopiero

Yep, our guest this week is Piero Paolo Gesualdi
from Mondopiero in Brunswick Street Fitzroy. Take one
step through the double doors of this double
story building and you are submerged in a mix
of design and detail. Make no mistake you have set foot into
Piero's World, and it does not disappoint! 


Mondopiero evokes the surroundings of a lifetime dedicated to the
appreciation and creation of beautiful things; showcasing
craftsmanship, artisanal skill, design and the whisper of a
refined sense of taste. 


I can't think of anyone else in the Melbourne design scene as
interesting as Piero. He has done it all, from owning
restaurants and clubs to importing and owning fashion labels, not
to mention he is an architect! He really is
an entrepreneur, a super stylish Italian entrepreneur!


In this wide-ranging conversation, Piero explains why he
left architecture at RMIT to go to India and we find out how
Piero managed to be the first person to
introduce cutting-edge international luxury fashion labels
such as Jean-Paul Gaultier, Giorgio Armani, Kenzo and Comme de
Garçons into the Australian market.
