It had been on the cards for quite a few years, now it's official: Berluti will expand from footwear (and leather goods) to become a 'total lifestyle' designer label.

After all, if you want to keep yourself exclusive as a footwear maker, you cannot expand permanently and swamp the market with more and more shoes available in more and more retail outlets, soon reducing the 'exclusivity' tag.
The new menswear label and it's first collection will be presented on Friday in Paris.
