With all of the hype behind fantastically expensive one-named designers, I think we sometimes forget that somewhere down the line, one individual person actually opened up a store and probably never dreamed their clothes would sell for thousands of dollars (with a couple of exceptions, as you'll see). Here are the stories behind some of those one-named designers. 1. Gucci Getty Images Guccio Gucci opened a small saddlery shop in 1906 and started selling practical leather bags to his horsemen customers sometime in the '20s.
The quality of his work was so outstanding he quickly gained a reputation and started to expand his line. By 1938 he had a second store in Rome; the third store opened in Milan in 1951. The brand was hot for a while, thanks to famous customers like Jackie O., Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn. But when Rodolfo Gucci, one of Guccio's sons, died and left his share to his son Maurizio, Maurizio turned things around and made Gucci a sought-after brand again. 2. 3. Getty Images.
