ALFREDO BANDINI

born outside italy Founder and Creative Executive
Officer

Growing up in Rome, Alfredo was surrounded by endless possibilities, but it was exactly this environment that fueled his desire to do something different. image

From early on, Alfredo didn't just go along with things because someone older or more senior or seemingly more qualified said so. He was all about finding his own path, questioning everything, and making his own choices.

While diving into the fashion scene in Dubai, Alfredo saw how fashion lets us say who we are without speaking. Yet, he also saw how the industry often chased after the latest thing, forgetting what really matters: quality, craftsmanship and creativity.

This sparked the birth of Born Outside Italy, a brand that brings back the focus on craftsmanship, materials and an elegance that doesn't have to shout to be heard.
