A story passed down from generation to generation<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Augusto Caraceni was born in Ortona (CH) in 1893 and from a young age, together with his brothers, he learned the art of tailoring from his father Tommaso, who had a tailor’s shop in the village but was known throughout the region. When his older brother, Domenico, opened his own tailor’s shop in Rome, he called on two of his brothers to work with him: Galliano and Augusto, and it was here that Augusto gained a wealth of experience.
In the 1930s, Augusto moved to Paris, where he enjoyed great success as a tailor, with clients who were among the most prominent figures of the time.
In 1939, due to the outbreak of World War II, Augusto, who had since married and had four children, returned to Italy.

In 1946, he opened his own tailor’s shop with a partner at Via Fatebenefratelli 16 in Milan.
In the same year, his young son Mario began working there and learning the art of tailoring. In 1972, after Augusto’s death, Mario named the tailor’s shop in memory of his father, and thus the current name A. CARACENI was born.

From 1972 to 1998, the business continued to thrive and acquire an international clientele, thanks to Mario’s determination and commitment to maintaining the tradition. Mario received various awards, including the Sant’Omobono and the Unione Milanese Sarti.
In 1998, Mario retired, leaving the company to his daughter Rita Maria and son-in-law Carlo Andreacchio, who had already been working with him for 20 years, Carlo as a cutter and Rita Maria as an administrator.

Carlo has been a member of the Accademia dei Sartori (Tailors’ Academy) since 1997 and in 2002 he received the gold medal from the Unione Milanese Sarti (Milanese Tailors’ Union).

Since 2004, their children, Massimiliano and Valentina, have also been working alongside them, having been fascinated by the work since childhood, continuing the family tradition and preparing to take over when the time comes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Augusto Caraceni nasce a Ortona (CH) nel 1893 e sin da giovane insieme ai suoi fratelli apprende l\u2019arte sartoriale dal padre Tommaso che aveva una sartoria in paese ma era conosciuto in tutta la regione.
Quando il fratello maggiore, Domenico, apre una sua sartoria a Roma, chiama a lavorare con lui due dei suoi fratelli: Galliano ed Augusto e qui Augusto matura una grande esperienza.
Negli anni \u201930 Augusto si trasferisce a Parigi dove riscuote un grande successo sartoriale, con clienti che rappresentano i personaggi pi\u00f9 in vista dell\u2019epoca.
Nel 1939 a causa dello scoppio della II\u00b0 Guerra Mondiale Augusto, che nel frattempo si \u00e8 sposato ed ha avuto 4 figli, rientra in Italia.

Nel 1946 a Milano, in via Fatebenefratelli 16, apre la sua sartoria, con un socio. Nello stesso anno inizia a lavorarci e ad apprendere l\u2019arte sartoriale anche il giovane figlio Mario.

Nel 1972 dopo la morte di Augusto, Mario intesta la sartoria alla memoria del padre e cos\u00ec nasce l'attuale intestazione A. CARACENI.

Dal 1972 al 1998 l\u2019attivit\u00e0 prosegue e prospera acquistando una clientela internazionale, grazie alla determinazione ed all\u2019impegno di Mario, che mantiene alta la tradizione.
A Mario vengono assegnati vari premi, tra cui il Sant\u2019Omobono e l\u2019Unione Milanese Sarti.

Nel 1998 Mario si ritira lasciando l\u2019azienda alla figlia Rita Maria ed al genero Carlo Andreacchio, che gi\u00e0 da 20 anni lavorano con lui, Carlo come tagliatore e Rita Maria come amministratore.

Carlo dal 1997 fa parte dell\u2019Accademia dei Sartori e nel 2002 riceve la medaglia d\u2019oro dall\u2019Unione Milanese Sarti.
Dal 2004 anche i loro figli, Massimiliano e Valentina, li affiancano nel lavoro, dal quale sono stati affascinati sin da bambini, per proseguire la tradizione familiare ed essere pronti a ricevere il testimone quando giunger\u00e0 il loro momento!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
