ZILLI, SPONSOR OF THE LYON’S CONTEMPORARY ART FAIR
ZILLI is proud to renew its support for the Biennale de Lyon.
As Official Partner, ZILLI was keen to again sponsor the prestigious « Soirée des Artistes ». This partnership fits naturally with ZILLI’s wish to honour artists, personalities and professionals in the international arts world.
The artist’s imagination and freedom echo the philosophy and values of the brand. This freedom is reflected in ZILLI’s singular identity and the style of its luxury menswear collections: “We are a firm of craftspeople,” explains Alain Schimel, Founder and Chairman, “like artists, we offer unique creations to the men we dress.”
Alain Schimel, President and Founder of ZILLI promoted to Officer in the National Order of the Merit
On May 23rd 2011 in Paris, Mr Frédéric Mitterrand, Minister for Arts, decorated Mr Alain Schimel, Founder and President of ZILLI, promoting him to the rank of Officer in the National Order of the Merit.
This distinction underlines the commitment of Mr Schimel in two ways: on one hand as a significant sponsor of the arts through The Biennial event of Contemporary Art of Lyon and the Villa Medicis for example; and on the other hand for his 40 years of professional activity in the luxury menswear sector. He has been unique in immortalising French craftsmanship and know-how, and following his passion.
