In the year 2000, the fashion designer Maurizio Braschi had taken over the management of the fashion house “BRASCHI”, based in Rovereta in San Marino, which his parents Lorenzo Braschi and Kate Anna Topp had founded in the year 1966. For the couture collection for autumn and winter of 2019/2020, he took up the style of the 1970s. Maurizio Braschi took the idea of an irresistible geometry from the work of the Hungarian-born French painter and graphic artist Vásárhelyi Győző alias Victor Vasarely, a co-founder of Op Art, where the perfection of circles, squares, rectangles and zigzag lines with three-dimensional effects had been transformed into checks, diamonds, waves, stripes and mosaics.
