Holding di Partecipazioni Industriali (HdP) can hold the fashion show and write it up. HdP's fashion business (about 55% of sales) consists of Gruppo Finanziaria Tessile (GFT), which makes designer apparel; the Valentino couture house; and athletic shoe and clothing maker Fila. HdP's other main business is RCS Editori, which publishes books, magazines, and leading Italian newspapers "Corriere de la Sera" and "La Gazzetta dello Sport". HdP was spun off from the corporate and personal holdings of Fiat's Agnelli family. CEO Maurizio Romiti and his father, Cesare, a former Fiat chairman and CEO, are part of a group that owns 49% of HdP. Romiti hopes to turn HdP into an Italian luxury comglomerate "à la" LVMH of France.
