FOUNDER
Eclectic, curious, eternal boy traveling towards cosmopolitan London open to the cultures of the world.
FRANCESCO
ESPOSITO
is one of the main experts and economic protagonists on the vintage market throug his journey between seasons and roles in a world that keeps on changing.
Thanks to his innate Passion for beauty, from door to door, was finally able to estabilish the first warehouse in Ercolano in 2001. “In a world where I selected vintage garments for the best shops, thinking big it was pure madness.Great businesses are born from those who have the ability to read opportunities in a changing society.”
THE COMPANY
1997
Millesime was founded by Francesco Esposito, thanks to his passion and the firm decision to express the true value of fashion. Starting from a 40 mq warehouse, the company quickly established itself as a landmark for all vintage clothing shops around the world.
2016
After a long period dedicated exclusively to the distribution, Francesco decided to challenge himself by starting another business, taking care of the goods division and selection. That moment a second company branch was born, dedicated to the sale of second-hand clothing by the kilo.
2023
It is the turning point for the company which changed its solitary appearance and moved to a warehouse of approximately 4,000 mq. Everything is designed, studied and created from a green perspective. From the photovoltaic system to the wall of the vertical garden, everything talks about nature, circularity and, obviously, recycling.
