DOMENICO OREFICE

Domenico Orefice

Born in Naples in 1997, Domenico Orefice developed a strong passion for fashion at an early age as a form of personal expression. At 15, he moved to Florence, where he studied fashion at an art high school, and at 17 he founded his first leather accessories brand, overseeing every stage of the production process. He later continued his education at Polimoda, further refining his vision and technical expertise.

From 2021 onward, he began receiving his first recognitions, presenting his debut collection in Vilnius and winning the Polimoda Talent Award in 2022—the same year he founded his eponymous brand, which merges Made in Italy craftsmanship with sportswear and a high-tech aesthetic.

Between 2022 and 2024, he presented multiple collections at Pitti Uomo, Milan Fashion Week, Dubai Fashion Week, and in various international contexts, attracting the attention of buyers and industry institutions. In 2024, he was selected for S|Style in collaboration with Kering. In 2025, he presented his FW25/26 collection in Milan, and in January 2026, also in Milan, he made his runway debut with his first show, ‘LUMEN.’ He was a Camera Moda Fashion Trust finalist in 2024, 2025, and 2026. Furthermore, in June 2026, he unveiled his SS27 collection with a runway show that further consolidated his distinctive aesthetic and marked a significant step in his international expansion, opening the doors to a growing network of stores worldwide.
