Frédéric de Luca (b. 1949)
Frédéric de Luca was born in 1949. After obtaining his diploma from the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Appliqués et des Métiers d'Art in Paris, he worked as a fabric designer, executing the designs in gouache, which developed his enthusiasm for the medium. De Luca also specialised in the design of knitwear, and later on in his career he designed shoes for the collections of several prestigious Italian shoe companies.
