Salvatore Ferragamo was born in 1898 in Bonito, a small town in southern Italy. He was the youngest of 13 children. Ferragamo's father was a shoemaker, and Salvatore began learning the trade at a young age. In 1914, he moved to the United States to pursue his dream of becoming a shoe designer.

Ferragamo worked in a number of shoe factories in Boston and New York City. He soon became known for his innovative designs and his use of high-quality materials. In 1927, he opened his own shoemaking shop in Florence, Italy.

In the 1950s, Ferragamo began to expand his business. more...
