Founded in Paris in 1932 by Madame Ricci and her son Robert Ricci, NINA RICCI has become in the space of half a century a prestigious name in the French luxury goods industry. |
||
1932 |
Madame Ricci arrived in Paris from Turin as a young girl, and was 49 years old when her only son Robert convinced her to set up her own Haute Couture House. Success was rapid for this remarkable "dress architect" : the 40 seamstresses working in a building at 20 rue des Capucines had increased to 450 at the outbreak of war. |
|
1946 |
Wishing to diversify the Couture House's operations, whilst also expressing his own sensibilities, Robert Ricci launched his first perfume "Coeur-Joie". Enclosed in a frosted crystal bottle made by Marc Lalique and illustrated by the artist Christian Bérard, this bouquet of sweet-smelling flowers immediately set NINA RICCI in a class of its own in the world of artistic and creative perfumery. |
|
1948 |
Two years later, Robert Ricci created "L'Air du Temps", a magical fragrance that was to become one of French perfumery's great classics. |
|
| 1959 |
Taking advantage of NINA RICCI's growing reputation overseas, "L'Air du Temps" was introduced on major world markets, in particular Japan and the United States. |
|
1970 |
Madame Nina Ricci passed away on the 30 November, aged 87. |
|
1974 |
PARFUMS NINA RICCI developed rapidly during the 1970's to become one of France's leading exporters. To cope with this expansion, NINA RICCI decided to build the Ury Perfume Production Centre, which was operational for the launch of "Farouche" in 1974. This model factory, combining advanced technology with traditional perfumery methods, has since then assured worldwide production of all NINA RICCI perfumes. |
|
1979 |
NINA RICCI moved from the Rue des Capucines of its humble beginnings to the Avenue Montaigne, in one of Paris's most prestigious quarters. NINA RICCI's head office incorporating five floors of offices, design studios and workrooms, boutiques, salons and several showrooms, thus became the strategic base of a company whose operations developed to cover ready-to-wear, leather goods and fashion accessories - scarves, glasses, jewellery,… |
|
1986 |
With the opening of the "Ricci-Club" men's boutique, NINA RICCI developed a new centre of interest. The launch of the men's eau de toilette "Ricci-Club" in 1989, followed by the "NINA RICCI Monsieur" men's lines soon produced results for this new activity. |
|
1992 |
NINA RICCI undertook a major diversification with the creation of its first cosmetic line "Le Teint Ricci". Developed with the help of Research Laboratories, with packaging designed by Garouste and Bonetti, "Le Teint Ricci" offered a new approach to beauty, resolutely placed under the sign of innovation and pleasure. Two new perfumes followed this launch : "Deci Delà" in 1994, then in 1996, "Les Belles de Ricci", an impertient Eau de Toilette perfect for 15 - 20 year olds. New designers joigned the fashion house including Christian Astuguevieille entrusted with the development of the Leather Goods. |

|
2001 |
The arrival of a new signature on the female fragrance front, symbolizing the evolution of the brand. "Premier Jour" is the "first born" of the new Ricci era. Its name, its purpose and its image make it an act of faith, just as L'Air du Temps was at its inception. |
|
2002 |
Fortified by the success to the launch of Premier Jour, Nina Ricci is writing a new chapter in fragrance, to establish its legitimacy as a perfumer for men. Nina Ricci is asserting again the brand territory around its first values. [MEMOIRE D’HOMME] is a great men’s classic whose mission is to match the ideas and aesthetics of its time.
