Rectitude is the word that describes at its best la Signora Ferragamo.

In a world of superficial show-off ers, she was the epitome of values and rectitude.

The symbol of a self-made woman who cared not just about her beautiful family but also about the reputation of the Company and its proper growth.

Sublime taste, great values, always curious she drove the Company through tough years being the example of what luxury is.

She demonstrated with her life that, really, anything is possible, even for a woman coming from a small village in Southern Italy.

She made a dream come true with low profile and immense personal power. She will be truly and deeply missed.
