1983: Weekend Max Mara is born
Launched as an off-shoot of the main Max Mara collection, as its name suggests, Weekend Max Mara offered an authentic wardrobe of sophisticated relaxed pieces and handsome outdoor wear for women seeking to look chic even in their free time. Beyond fashion and seasons, this new and empowering approach to casual wear was immediately well-received by self-confident women, who were increasingly carving out a position for themselves on the evolving social and work scene.

1990: a wanderlust spirit
As Italian fashion continued to gain momentum worldwide, so did Weekend Max Mara. The success and visibility led to its first top-class ad campaigns, starring a gaggle of Supermodels the caliber of Linda Evangelista, Isabella Rossellini, Amber Valletta and Karen Elson: perfect Muses of the lightness and the carefree mood of the brand.
2000-2023: THE FIRST FLAGSHIP STORE
The first flagship opens in Bologna. The store, which still exists today, paved the way for an international expansion. The current design concept is characterized by welcoming, airy and bright spaces, evocative of a contemporary home. The mix of materials includes wood, grit and ornate cement tiles mixed with blue boiserie and black and white wall paper featuring designs of antique Italian gardens.
