I started in the hospitality industry at a young age of 12. Having had experience in family business and my job as a Disk Jockey on the side, I opened up my first business, A&R Entertainment. I grew my own DJ Company, having parties every week and being in the night life arena. In college I started "312 Productions" with my current business partners and ran successful nightlife events in New Jersey. My personal work experience led me to have an internship at Bloomingdales as a assistant restaurant manager.
Being in the night life and a consumer of premium denim and designer products led me to realize my passion for the fashion industry. I started analyzing what was wrong with men's designer products and realized that there isn't a designer company that focuses on men's needs in the apparel industry. I wanted to create a product that screams passion, nightlife, and fun with the industries finest materials and hand crafted embroidery. Everyday I work to be the best at what I do, and doing so I love to wear the best. Exclusivity and quality are the two priorities in creating a company that will succeed.
My vision is from a different perspective. Most designers are older and look down on the world from a different vision than 20 year old. Being 20 I get to analyze what is happening today and bring a new future into fashion with the expertise of experienced mentors and designers.
My life has been about exclusivity, and creating an exclusive product is something I always wanted to do. I have traveled the world, stayed in finest hotels, been to the hottest clubs, ate in the best restaurants, and now creating the finest designer apparel the industry has ever seen.
Lucas Cittone
Being the son of an "entrepreneur of the year" winner, having and running my own business is what I've always wanted to do, one could say I was born to be an entrepreneur. Growing up, athletics was a huge passion. Being the captain of three varsity teams in high school taught me how to be a great leader and gave me a competitive edge, two tools that are important for running a successful business. Before getting involved in the extraordinary fashion industry I part-owned and ran a productions company called 312 productions. 312 productions threw huge college parties and club nights at various hot spots around New Jersey.
Even though a great athlete and ran a successful productions company there has always been a passion for clothing. Whether it's having to match my shoes with my shirt, or having the hottest new apparel on the market I've always have had to feel good. Feeling good happens from looking good and fashion makes people look good. Therefore it has always been a dream to come out with a line of fashion that is just exceptional. When someone is thinking about what he should wear tonight I wa nt them to wear something N? namë because N? namë will make them look good which will definitely make them feel good.
By being very young and still a student at a university that leads the world in global education I feel that my partners and I can bring a new, hot, fresh flavor to the exclusive premium denim world.
