The young Made in Milan brand tells its story: the fun and conscious spirit of Carolina Cerutti conquers the Milanese capital and opens the doors of its temporary store on April 12, just a few days from the Salone del Mobile

Where does the name Art dealer come from?
The name Art dealer comes from the idea of creating a space, a community, which is a container of art and fashion. The main objective is to give a voice to young artists and designers through various projects.
What is the philosophy of the brand?
The brand was designed with the aim of offering timeless garments that focus on quality and that fit, physically and metaphorically, into the wardrobe of women who value every single item they own. The desire is to create an inclusive fashion, in terms of design, price and message.
You studied in Chile, Milan and London. How have these cities influenced the aesthetics of the brand?
These cities are obviously three completely different realities but it is precisely their mingling that gave birth to the Art Dealer philosophy. Chile shares a message of inclusiveness and transparency which are among the main values of Art dealer. Milan represents the sophisticated woman who wants to leave a mark on every occasion. London creates that balance between a chic, free woman who is not afraid to dare.
Who are the muses?
My muses are <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/music/cici-ibiza-dj" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aretha Franklin</a> , <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/best-looks-studio-54-70s-fashion-style-elton-john-cher-grace-jones" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Diana Ross</a> , <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/music/cher-and-elton-john-what-is-artists-fortune" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cher</a> , Mina and the women of Henri Matisse.
 What kind of woman is the Art Dealer woman?
As we have shown with the last two collections, the Art Dealer woman is a woman in constant growth and evolution: ready to accept change, ready to blossom.

Art dealer is building a new chapter towards a more responsible and attentive future to our planet. How are you developing this new project? We are developing it in different ways, also because a responsible approach to fashion is in the roots of the brand. We do several launches per season to avoid overproduction with limited quantities and exclusive products. We tour Italy in search of end-of-stock fabrics to offer more sustainable alternatives without having to send new fabrics into production for each launch. All dyeing and printing products used are certified non-toxic so as not to pollute the planet. In terms of shipments, we have just activated the new bike service in Milan, to make shipments to cities more ecological. Obviously it is a service exclusively on Milan for the moment, even if we hope soon to be able to extend this service to other cities. The experience of the temporary store has just ended. Are new stores expected to open in the future? The opening of the new store is scheduled for April 12th. The shop will also aesthetically convey the mood of the Art Dealer and will be located in Corso Magenta 32, in Milan. At the moment the format is once again envisaged as temporary, until 1 August. In 2021 he opened Casa Art dealer, office and showroom in Milan. What are the next projects? In the brand&#39;s next projects there is certainly expansion abroad, especially in the USA and the United Arab Emirates.

Have you ever thought about collaborating? If yes, with whom?
We'd like to in the future- it's a topic we're evaluating. &nbsp; It's a delicate choice because the community relies heavily on our values, it's important that there is possibly a stylistic and ethical union in the collaboration.
Are you planning the idea of developing a line of accessories?
As a novelty we have just launched the KIDS collection with the famous "mini-me", looks coordinated with the mother. The next step could undoubtedly be in the world of accessories.
If Art Dealer were to have one musical influence, what would it be?
Definitely Italian music from the 70s and 80s. We have dedicated an entire collection to this genre in the past, naming the garments after some iconic songs of the time. 
Is there a person you dream of dressing?
Our dream would be to dress <a href="https://www.lofficielibiza.com/fashion/every-time-lisa-bonet-zoe-kravitz-have-coordinated-matched-outfits-red-carpet-channing-tatum-2022" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Zo&euml; Kravitz</a> and Cher , two different styles and personalities that could perfectly fit into our world.
