President of Bros Manifatture Group Receives Design Excellence Award
Lanfranco Beleggia, president of Bros Manifatture Group, which is the international parent of fashion jewelry brand Brosway Italia, was honored with the Hall of Fame/Founders Award during the 2022 Accessories Council’s Excellence Awards (ACE) in New York on Nov. 9.
“I am incredibly honored to receive this award,” said Beleggia. “We have worked hard to try to be successful in the large U.S. market and in order to see our philosophy, our experience in fashion jewelry, our continuous pursuit of beauty, innovation, and fashion appreciated. We are extremely proud to be present in international markets with a brand like Brosway Italia, which is highly evocative of the Italian lifestyle: vibrant, colorful and modern.”
While the ceremony for the awards happened earlier in November, the annual gala evening is set for May 3, 2023, also in New York.
