The US financial investor Carlyle Group took over a majority interest (70%) in Light Group in 2012 with the aim of intensifying international expansion. Business operations are still in the hands of the founders Tiziano Sgarbi and Simona Barbieri. It is planned for the brand TWIN-SET Simona Barbieri to go public at the end of 2015 or in early 2016. The brand has its HQ in Carpi near Modena and focused from the start on technological innovations with the latest machines for production at the highest level. The sophisticated and elegant collections of Simona Barbieri are playful, feminine and romantic. The TWIN-SET range includes knitwear, embroidered apparel, lace and applications as unique products created with great attention to detail.
