Founded in 1962 by Silvia Bocchese, knitwear company MILES (Maglificio italiano lana e seta) made a name for itself through its high-quality raw materials, experimentation with three-dimensional knitting and commitment to elegance. Beginning in the years when people still worked with hand-drawn sketches sent through fax machines and discussed over the telephone, the firm has evolved with the times and with technology. This chic publication illustrates 60 years of the company’s story through sketches, archival designs and more. At the center of the volume is curator Cristina Beltrami’s interview with Silvia Bocchese, from which the salient aspects and anecdotes of her career emerge. These are further buoyed by accounts from her contemporaries, including Renzo Zengiaro, the founder of Bottega Veneta; and Orsola De Castro, founder of Fashion Revolution.
