My dear fashionistas, welcome to a new fashion story on the Mr.M blog. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. We start today’s fashion adventure with old well-known friends of Mr.M blog – Fratelli Rossetti. This Italian footwear brand that I’m sure everyone recognizes for their comfortable shoes that are made from the highest quality materials Fratelli Rossetti footwear is fantastic for the reason that this brand makes classic shoes that are elegant and simply unbeatable, shoes for all time! You had the chance to see their most famous model, the Brera, in my Jordan fashion stories.
What is the story of this brand? In the middle of the 20th century, more precisely in 1945, Mr. Renzo Rossetti started his story from scratch, where he worked alone to cut leather for several types of sports shoes. His shoes were sold at the famous Brigatti store in Milan, one of the few remaining stores of its kind in the city. After a few years, Fratelli Rossetti saw success, but, wanting to develop further, they transferred the brands and equipment for this special production to Atala Sport in Padua.
So they decided to start their story again from the beginning and decided to switch to the production of classic shoes. Those were the years between 1952 and 1957, which witnessed the orientation and acquisition of new skills in the creation of women’s ballet flats and elegant, simple men’s footwear characterized by extremely flexible and high-quality workmanship. All this led to the creation of a small collection of men’s shoes with contours that differed from the various styles sold at the time. Renzo Rossetti consequently engaged in work that demonstrated his aesthetic sense and artistic perfectionism.
The story of the Fratelli Rossetti company is an inspiring story of a successful Italian family business that opened its doors in 1953. This is not just an ordinary company story, but a family story: the founder, Renzo Rossetti, and his wife, Lisetta, were dedicated to their work all their lives. The Fratelli Rossetti company is currently run by the second generation of the Rossetti family, the brothers Diego, Dario and Luca, who, due to their different roles and by developing their own different skills, have successfully brought their company to its 60th anniversary, always in search of quality and united by their passion with strict respect for tradition.
Fratelli Rossetti has a long tradition of “big little innovations”. In this company, tradition and quality have always gone hand in hand with insatiable curiosity and commitment to innovation. From the introduction of tassels and the invention of shoes designed to be worn without socks, to stylistic innovations and the launch of the “masculine” style, to the application of colors in unique chromatic shades. It was Renzo Rossetti who emphasized the importance of embracing new materials, styles and shapes: as early as the 60s, he was already experimenting with different color combinations on leather. Today, the company continues its research and development activities thanks to the knowledge of its craftsmen and the creative spirit of the styling department.
Fratelli Rossetti in its collections for men has timeless classic lines that you can find all year in their offer, some of the models are: Brera, Brera Sport, Hobo Sport, Yacht, La Giusta and the new line that you will get to know today – Green Side.
The Fratelli Rossetti Green Side line marks an important step on the way to respecting and sustaining the environment. The project begins with the launch of sports slippers that never neglect the historical values of the Fratelli Rossetti world, such as handwork and tradition. From the Spring-Summer 2023 collection, Green Side also conquers the festive line with one of the most representative models: the iconic Brera moccasins, which in this version stand out for their hand-knit mask with crochet technique, suede upper made of recycled material. material and for the sole made of recycled leather. In the slipper model, the sole is made entirely of natural latex, which makes the shoe versatile and comfortable. For both proposals, the inner lining is made of natural bamboo fibers and the removable insole is made entirely of Pet fibers, which guarantee high breath-ability and optimal moisture absorption. The cotton stitching is particularly impressive, emphasizing the appeal of the handmade product.
In today’s post, I present one of the Brera models. Brera is the bohemian quarter of Milan where, in the sixties of the last century, sculptors, painters and writers struggled to leave their mark with a new language and new forms. The liberal and cosmopolitan spirit was the source of inspiration for “Brera”, a moccasin with tassels, a style revolution in a country that is just rediscovering its joy of life. Brera combines different materials and colors as a true work of art. The special composition of materials and shapes makes moccasins a successful chapter in the history of Fratelli Rossetti.
Based on environmental awareness, sustainability and craftsmanship, this Brera moccasin model from the Green Side project is also reflected in the iconic value and beauty of the Brera moccasin. The loafers you can see in today’s post are made of soft suede and have a hand-crocheted penny bridge, which emphasizes the exclusivity of Brera moccasins. These moccasins have a leather sole.

Today we continue the story of the Egyptian fashion brand MEROË, which managed to show potential customers that there is real fashion stress relief with its simplicity and practicality. Every MEROË piece of clothing is made with love and to last more than one season.
How was the MEROË brand created? MEROË was created as a real solution for all those who have a certain stress when choosing and finding simple and practical clothing pieces that can properly correspond to real everyday experiences, because all MEROË clothing pieces are designed and tailored with style and comfort in equal measure.
The MEROË brand was founded by Sarah Dawood, founder and creative director. Directed art education at London College of Fashion and Istituto Di Moda Burgo. Ms. Sarah Dawood has more than 5 years of work history in the fashion industry and business management. Her work in fashion began with passion, hard work and the ability to focus and never give up on her dreams. On one occasion Ms. Sara Dawood stated: “For me the process never stops, the design process is constant, it is constant everywhere. I design from life experiences, art, movies, music, places I’ve visited, people I’ve met along the way. In the end, I learned about their culture and traditions, and then learned from them. I taste, see and feel culture in its raw form.”
MEROË is on a mission of rational consumption, which means that the brand is working to change the perspective of the industry from fast to slow fashion, so that the MEROË brand will provide pieces that can be worn and loved for longer. The MEROË team believes that sustainable fashion should never compromise. MEROË carefully creates clothes with great style, high quality and impeccable fit. MEROË carries out all these processes through responsible procurement and ethical production so that they can be consciously kept and given a second life.

It is made of 100% pure linen, which is a naturally breathable and light material, and also has a stand-up collar and a classic button closure. It’s interesting that this shirt can be worn over a sleeveless t-shirt due to its loose, wide cut, or you can wear it as a real shirt like I did today.

Bonjour, Monsieur M! Fantastic post and even more beautiful you, you look magnificent and a positive change in your appearance is noticeable! All praise for your new look and this outfit is simply outstanding, as is expected from you. At least you always fulfilled my fashion expectations and were up to the task. The linen shirt is unusual, I have never heard of this Egyptian brand, but I like their creations, they are unique and seem comfortable.
A wonderful outfit for warmer days during the year, it is somehow suitable for all occasions, such as a simple walk around the city, and it can also be used for some daily formal occasions such as a reception. Your sense of fashion is unmistakable and I am glad that your blog has survived for so many years and that you have remained special, unique and your own in the world of fashion which normally changes people and they lose themselves. The best time for you is yet to come! You look great, keep it up!
I love your style and the brands you wear, simply Loro Piana and Fratelli Rossetti are an ideal combination in your case! You are simply born for classic fashion especially when it comes to quiet luxury brands, but I think Loro Piana, Brunello Cucinelli and Tod’s their clothes and shoes suit you best!
Lieber Marko, deine Mokassins und dein Shirt gefallen mir wirklich gut! Ideale Modestücke für jede Sommersaison. Ich muss deinen neuen Look loben, du siehst wirklich schön und erfrischt aus. Ich freue mich auf Ihre Modegeschichten, ebenso wie die liebe Frau Mama!
Du bist ein Mensch, der definitiv Stil hat und es versteht, sich zu jedem Anlass immer fantastisch zu kleiden! Manche Menschen werden einfach mit der Gabe geboren, die ihnen das Leben erleichtert. Ich habe zum Beispiel immer großen Stress, wenn ich versuche, mich schön anzuziehen. Manchmal habe ich das Gefühl, dass ich mich besser anziehe, wenn ich mir nicht die geringste Mühe mache und einfach das Erste trage, was ich im Schrank finde. Ich habe eure Reiseberichte schon lange nicht mehr gelesen, wird es bald oder bald wieder Reisen geben? Ich liebe es, Ihre Reisezielempfehlungen zu lesen.
Hi Marko, great outfit! I love your fashion sense and I love that you always have simple but very striking and unusual fashion pieces and that you give people inspiration. Does the MEROE brand deliver clothes to the EU? I’m in the Netherlands and I liked some of their stuff, but I don’t know how it goes when you buy clothes from Egypt.
