FSI\u00a0has become the controlling shareholder of\u00a0Missoni, increasing its stake in the Italian fashion group rather than pursuing a sale to international buyers, according to Italian daily Il Sole 24 Ore.<\/em><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The transaction preserves domestic ownership of the brand, which has been a symbol of Italian luxury since 1953. FSI will partner with the Fassin and Bachmueller families, who have acquired around 25% through their holding company Katjes Quiet Luxury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Missoni has emerged from the pandemic with strengthened financial performance. Turnover has doubled to approximately \u20ac130m, or around $143m, while EBITDA is expected to reach roughly \u20ac20m, equivalent to about $22m, this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company has also delivered commercial momentum. The Spring\/Summer and Autumn\/Winter 2026 collections, led by creative director Alberto Caliri, recorded sales growth of 30%, outperforming several larger luxury peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new ownership structure maintains continuity in governance. Livio Proli, formerly of Giorgio Armani, remains CEO, while FSI co-founder Barnaba Ravanne continues as Chairman. The existing management team stays in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For FSI, the move reinforces its strategy of backing high-quality Italian consumer and luxury assets with international growth potential. Rather than exiting, the firm has opted to deepen its commitment, positioning Missoni for a new phase of expansion with additional capital and strategic support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Missoni family will step back from ownership but remain custodians of the brand\u2019s heritage through the Ottavio and Rosita Missoni Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
