Puig celebrates 110 year Legacy with new book by Rizzoli

Spanish fashion and beauty house Puig has unveiled 'Puig, Home of Creativity' - a new book published by Rizzoli New York that celebrates more than 110 years of its legacy as it enters a new chapter following its public listing in 2024.

Written by Alice Cavanagh - Paris based journalist and editor for Vogue, The Wall Street Journal Magazine, The New York Times, and How to Spend It, the book traces the evolution of Puig through a comprehensive history of the company's remarkable international development-from its foundation in Barcelona in 1914 to becoming a key player in the global premium beauty industry, spanning fragrances and fashion, makeup, and skincare.

Reflecting the legacy, distinctive values, and the journey of fashion and beauty brands within its portfolio such as Carolina Herrera, Charlotte Tilbury, Rabanne, Jean Paul Gaultier, Dries Van Noten, Nina Ricci, and Byredo, the book offers a polyphonic portrait of Puig as it continues to push boundaries while staying grounded in its essence. Original contributions, archival imagery, and newly commissioned photography brings it's story to life.

The book also features contributions from leading voices in journalism, literature, photography and perfumery, including international fragrance taxonomist historian, and author Michael Edwards, Jean-Claude Ellena, Spanish author of poetry and prose books, screenwriter, and lyricist Leticia Sala, and Spanish art historian, author, and journalist for El Pais Anatxu Zabalbeascoa.

'This book is a tribute to Puig, a company we proudly define as a Home of Creativity, to the legacy we have built, to the people and passion that fuel our Love Brands, and to the resilience that has defined us since our founding. It captures the essence of who we are: a company that evolves with purpose, remains rooted in its values, and continues to build for the long term,' Marc Puig, Chairman and CEO of Puig said in a statement.

'Creating a book is a long and ambitious process. During this journey, as an editor, you truly get to see the personality of the people you work with, as you are facing together challenges, surprises, creative decisions...Exchanges that reveal the real values of a brand and its people's creativity, openness, commitment, and boldness. I praise the excellence of Puig and its community: working together on this book has been the most rewarding experience,' Catherine Bonifassi, Editorial Director for Rizzoli New York stated.
