Founder · Designer · Inventor
Jennifer Stucko is the founder, designer and inventor behind Prota Fiori, the Italian-made women's footwear house she founded following a career at Giorgio Armani, Valentino and A.Testoni.
Her work is rooted in a longstanding relationship with Italy and a belief that the traditions of Italian shoemaking can provide a foundation for new ideas. In Le Marche, where Prota Fiori is made, Stucko works with Italian artisans and material partners to bring together traditional craft, contemporary design and material innovation.
Her approach moves between design and invention, treating material, construction and silhouette as interconnected parts of the creative process.
Based in New York with deep ties to Italy, Stucko directs the world of Prota Fiori across product, materials and image.
