Nino Cerruti died on Saturday at age 91 following complications from a surgery, a spokeswoman for Lanificio Fratelli Cerruti said.
Cerruti, who was born in Biella, one of Italy’s main textile hubs, was a key figure in the international fashion industry.
His first men’s collection, Hitman, was shown in 1957 and was considered revolutionary in men’s wear at the time, as Cerruti is credited as the first to create the deconstructed jacket for men.
