Jon Buscemi (born October 3, 1975) is an American fashion designer known for his work at Oliver Peoples, co-founding Gourmet,[1] and his eponymous brand Buscemi.[2]

Career

After working on Wall Street,[3] Jon began to amass a very broad sneaker collection and soon took his hunt for very exclusive and limited edition sneakers world-wide.[4] Simultaneously, many of his skateboarding peers started their own brands in the street-wear and skate space. Through these industry connections, Buscemi was hired by skateboard footwear brand DC Shoe Co. USA to work on special projects.[5]

After DC, he left to become the Creative Director of Lotto USA, a partnership with the Italian tennis and soccer brand Lotto.[citation needed] Along with a small team of creatives, Buscemi launched Lotto Leggenda in the US before going on to work as a Brand Director at Oliver Peoples.[citation needed]

In 2006, Buscemi and two partners launched the footwear brand Gourmet.[6] After leaving Gourmet in January 2013, Buscemi launched the eponymous brand Buscemi at Capsule Show in Paris in June 2013.[citation needed]
