ABOUT




Something about yourself
About
Ideas, creative drive, a desire to experiment
and push boundaries, and the contradictions
of controversy have always been his fundamental
traits. Then, life experiences led him to
confront various realities that he initially
imagined as ideal.
Then he realized the growing normality around
him. So he traveled—often—meeting people from
tiny villages, living with them, trying to
understand their perspective.
Then came the big cities: Italy, France, England,
Germany, Spain, Greece, Switzerland…
He explored visual arts through photography,
not as a tool to narrate but as a way to emit a
visual sound that resonated within himself.
Then came fashion, still life, the erupting
Etna, events.
20 years ago, fashion—by chance.
He thought that perhaps he could say something
without burdening anyone's pockets, with no
intention of being absorbed by any group or
renowned designer, but by exposing himself to
the market and its sudden challenges.
And so, a product was born: Sniff the Shirt,
distributed across all top shops in Italy and
throughout Europe, with a dedicated space at
4 La Rinascente stores in Italy:
Rome, Milan, Padua, and Turin.
But he didn’t stop there—he created a network of
19 multi-brand stores in Italy
in several cities
1 Showroom in Milan,
becoming a key figure in the industry.
Then came the pandemic.
The world stopped, and so did his path.
The silence, the waiting, the imposed void led
him to reflect.
Serious personal events intertwined with the
global crisis, pushing him to look inward and
question what he truly wanted to be.
A shift in direction, a U-turn.
He decided to resume his studies, to graduate.
A journey that wasn’t just academic but deeply
personal.
Today, he lives in London, where he earned his
degree at UCA, and has embarked on a new chapter
in his life.
As they say at UCL, he embraced disruptive
thinking.
If he was once a designer, but above all, a
businessman, today he wants to live freely
and be purely creative.
He no longer wants to deal with business but
to create without constraints while traveling.
And finally, now, you know where he comes from—
but in reality, many have already worn this
brand – Paolo Severo.
Soon, a new project will be born from this, not
just a creative endeavor but a way of life:
Fashion Wanderer by Paolo Severo.
A journey through places, experiences, and
inspirations—without maps or borders, just
creativity in motion.
If you choose to join me, we will discover it
together, step by step.
