Dante Trussardi decided to create a specialized atelier for sewing leather gloves in Bergamo. After 60 years of development, the small atelier becomes a fashion brand under the management of Dante’s grandson, Nicola Trussardi. He is expanding his range, offering customers leather belts, shoes, suitcases and wallets.

“Fashion is not only for the elite” - Nicola Trussardi incorporated democracy into the philosophy of the house. Therefore, shows with clothes were held in the Duomo at the Central Station, where invited guests and passers-by became the public.

Today the brand's headquarters are located in Milan, in Palazzo Trussardi alla Scala.

Since 2021, the creative directors of Trussardi are Serhat Işık and Benjamin Huseby, designers from Berlin, creators of the streetwear brand GmbH. Finalists of the LVMH Prize 2018 and Andam 2021. Their first collection for Trussardi was for the FW 22/23 season.
