Even over Zoom, it is clear that Carolina and Camilla
Cucinelli are cut from the same cloth. Some of what
the sisters share is readily apparent: microexpres-
sions, turns of phrases, honey-colored hair tied neatly
back. But the t r ue foundat ion of their int imacy is
based in that which is not readily visible, but that is
ever-present on the horizon: their joint future at the
hel m of the behemoth that thei r father, Br u nel lo
Cucinelli, 70, built. During our interview, they batted
quest ions back and for th li ke co-stars promot ing
a su m mer blockbu ster. They f i n i sh each ot her 's
sentences with smiles big enough to comfor tably fit
across two faces. This palpable harmony makes it easy
to forget that these two young women, the next gener-
ation of Brunello Cucinelli, are in fact nine years apart.
Grow ing up, they never shared resources, respon-
sibilities, or secrets the same way they do now.
