SubscribeI’ve got an inspiring story. Does Belisi Fashions ring a bell?
His story is one for the books. Belisi started out poor, not quite within the circles he is moving in with now. He actually served as a bartender once for the very people who now works him. But he had a dream. And he followed through with it.
Inspired by the very same people he worked for, he invested his money on a tie collection and from there it just boomed. His designs are have a loyal following already which recently expanded to scarves and handbags. I really like his guiding principle – Luxury with Meaning.
He has been quoted saying:
“Belisi unites the luxury and prestige of Palm Beach with Italian beauty and sophistication. Inside Belisi we cultivate a passion for exquisite materials and skilled craftsmanship. Each dramatic detail, represents our unwavering quest to fashion products of truly enduring value.â€
His story is something you can be inspired by. He did not wait for his dream to come true. He made it come true. And even if he is there, living his dream – each purchase of his product has proceeds going to funds fighting poverty, protecting the environment, seeking justice and funding medical research.

He invested any extra money he could earn on a starting tie collection business, just wanting to support his starting family and newborn baby. It became an instant hit and he decided to sell a line of luxury fashion accessories, inspired by the Palm Beach Lifestyle. [...]
