About Johna Mancini

Johna Mancini is an NYC-based visual artist and designer and citizen of both the United States and Italy. He has an eclectic experience in the art of Visual Window Display Designing and has worked with the most prestigious and successful brands in fashion. Coming from a theater background, set design and directing have always been part of Johna Mancini's passion and have influenced him when designing splendid visual merchandise creations.

Johna Mancini has executed numerous window display ideas for Valentino along with collaborating on visual merchandising displays throughout their shops in Italy.

For Emporio Armani, a much more "sporty line", Johna designed windows and props. He impressed us with his geometric and colorful designs for Dolce & Gabbana and grabbed our attention with his innovative vision, combination of art and fashion for Gucci.

Johna explored strange and emotional moods to create a wild atmosphere for Escada and continued this intense, unconventional journey with exquisite details for Versace.

A truly eye opening design was created for Moschino; titled the "Label Queen Window”, the display involved dressing a mannequin with labels from the brand, creating a baroque 1700s dress, fit for a queen.

For more conservative tastes, Johna created a classic business look for the windows at Brioni, a leading menswear store. He was also inspired by the art of Tamara De Lempicka for a display at La Perla in the United States.

Since he moved to New York in 1998, he also collaborated with the architect Peter Marino as a visual merchandising consultant and window display artist for the vitrines inside of the Chanel corporation.

His credits also include collaboration with chief editor Domenico Vacca of Italia Magazine for the organization of the Stile Italia 1997 Madison Avenue event and window display for Bulgari, Tanino Crisci, La Perla, Krizia, Beretta, Davide Cenci, Testoni and Les Copains.
