MC2 Saint Barth

Raffaele Noris is 46 years old and an entrepreneur in the clothing industry. He created the fashion brand Mc2 Saint Barth twenty years ago, which has become well-known in recent years for its beachwear line and accessories. “It’s a project that started about twenty years ago, inspired by the sea and vacations,” Noris explains. “It began with a Milanese friend: we were on vacation together in Sardinia. We had no backing or large investments, but we started by drawing inspiration from other friends who had embarked on similar ventures and began with men’s swimwear.” A friendship born by the sea turned into a company: “I’m from Bergamo and he’s from Milan, a nice combination: I like to stay in Bergamo for my life and frequent Milan, which always offers a valid, different point of view.” From the beach collection, the lines have expanded, and today Mc2 Saint Barth is one of the most successful and fastest-growing names in the European fashion scene: “Different lines for men, children, and women with a whole world of accessories for the entire year,” explains the Bergamasque. “A total look with collections always dedicated to leisure.” And to the desire for carefree moments: “I remember the first swimsuit with a magnetic closure and waterproof pocket for the cell phone, a novelty at the time, and I still enjoy seeing Disney swimsuits on children at the beach.” Mc2 Saint Barth’s fashion speaks to the man who loves to be chic on the beach and doesn’t lose his elegant style even at the seaside: the swimsuits are characterized by good fit, beautiful colors, and excellent technical fabrics, whose innovation satisfies different age groups. The pastel-colored linen shirts, printed and embroidered garments, and colorful T-shirts tell a story of a relaxed, vacation-oriented lifestyle that doesn’t forgo sartorial details. The brand offers various fabric options: San Gallo Embroidery Swimwear, Animalier Swimwear, Chenille Swimwear, Lamé, Lycra, and a carefully selected range of durable and waterproof fabrics, allowing for a mix of patterns and materials to create unique and always different outfits.
