Rinascimento is an Italian luxury brand (it is the part of the Teddy Group), whose history dates back to 1960. Its founder, Vittorio Tadei, wanted an Italian luxury design transferred to clothes, which will highlight the most beautiful features of every real woman. It all began when Vittorio Tadei, a young man from Rimini and a cycling enthusiast decided to leave his job as an accountant and start working in his sisters’ clothes shop in Riccione. Vittorio soon opened his first artisan knitwear workshop in Rimini. In the 1970s he started wholesale distribution throughout Italy and opened his first shops in Emilia Romagna and Marche. 1988 was the turning point for Teddy. That year Terranova had been set up and Teddy’s on consignment franchise formula was set up, that would take Terranova to 20 countries over the next 10 years. In the meantime, wholesale distribution of Italian ready fashion continued and in 2000 took the form of the Rinascimento brand that developed worldwide via a network of international wholesale outlets. As Terranova continued to expand, reaching the landmark of 400 stores around the world, in 2005, Calliope - the third Teddy brand - was established. 30 November 2011 – the day when Teddy was 50 years old – Vittorio handed over the task of leading it into the future, laying the foundations to ensure it would last another 500 years. Thus, the company moved from Teddy SpA to the Teddy Group and began management training and restructured corporate governance. In 2020 the new distribution hub of Teddy Group opens its doors in Gatteo, just a few miles from Rimini. It is an important investment to improve the customer service and develop a more efficient and effective procurement management, besides being a step towards a more sustainable business. The building was awarded the Leed Gold-certification, which is one of the leading and most used international certification programs. Today Teddy Group has 13 wholesale outlets, 5,000,000 pieces sold in 83 countries, 8 sample collections, 7,000 models a year, 150 articles a week, e-commerce in 28 countries. Rinascimento products are currently distributed in more than 90 countries, with over 7000 points of sale, 54 branded stores and 37 Rinascimento Fits You.
