Fiorucci looked East for inspiration, buying cheap T-shirts from India, and turning rice sacks into bags.[4] Two years later the company set up its own manufacturing plant, and adopted the "two angels" logo created by Italo Lupi.[4] In 1974 the company opened a huge new store on Via Torino in Milan, expanding beyond fashion to offer books, furniture and music.[4] The new shop also had a performance area, vintage clothing market, and restaurant,[4] and was financed by an investment from the Standa department stores, part of the Montedison group. Meanwhile the label introduced the monokini and thong from Brazil, causing controversy with the topless photos used to advertise them.[4] Glass beads from New Mexico were another hit.[4] In 1975 the company opened its first store overseas, on the King's Road in London, and launched a children's collection called Fioruccino.[4] It brought Afghan coats to the mass market, and popularised the leopard-skin prints[4] first created by Elsa Schiaparelli two decades before.
