Maria Ricci is a fashion designer who founded her fashion house, Nina Ricci, in 1932 with her son Robert. The brand became known for its haute couture gowns, but after World War Ii, the company shifted to ready-to-wear. Robert launched the company’s perfume business in 1941. In 1954, Maria wanted to step away from design, so Robert, who had been managing the business, hired Jules-Francois Crahay as the head designer. Maria died in 1970 and Robert continued with the business until he passed away in 1988. The fashion and fragrance businesses were sold to Puig in 1998.
