Parisian independent luxury book publisher, retailer, and lifestyle brand Assouline has released a coffee-table book in honor of Italian entrepreneur and fashion visionary Renzo Rosso who celebrated his 70th birthday last month.

Titled 'Seventy: Renzo Rosso', it is part of a series of books Rosso publishes every ten years, Featuring an introduction by Vanessa Friedman, fashion director and chief fashion critic of The New York Times, it offers an authentic portrait of an entrepreneur who has always been driven by bold choices. A vision that led him to build the 'Only the Brave' Group in 2006 by daring, experimenting, and going beyond the ordinary.

With 300 Pages and over 200 illustrations, the tome explores seventy defining moments from Rosso's life and career - Diesel's irreverent campaigns that brought the brand global success, and the iconic creations and fashion shows of OTB brands- Diesel, Jil Sander, Maison Margiela, Marni, Viktor&Rolf, and Amiri.

The book also describes the social impact initiatives promoted by the OTB Foundation, to support children, women, and vulnerable communities in Italy and around the world, as well as Rosso's other business investments across various sectors, including hotellerie, wineries, technology, and longevity clinics.


'I have always been fascinated by beauty, by creativity, and although I evidently had a creative spark inside of me, it was the creative people I worked next to all through the years that made it flourish, grow, take different forms,' Rosso stated.


Priced at 120 Eur, 'Seventy: Renzo Rosso' is available now at assouline.com and at Assouline stores.
