In 1998, Biani launched the youthful line 'AB Alberto Biani', and in 2001, the company 'Alberto Biani' became a joint-stock company. In 2002, Alberto opened his first showroom in Milan, followed by another showroom in Rome in 2007. Alongside overseeing projects for 'Alberto Biani' and 'AB Alberto Biani', Biani actively collaborates with the brand 'Incotex', which is part of the Italian company 'Slowear'.

'Slowear' is a renowned project specializing in the production of stylish clothing and has a distinct perspective on style. Rather than following fleeting fashion trends, 'Slowear' focuses on their own concept of beauty and quality. The result of their craftsmanship is long-lasting clothing that provides immense satisfaction throughout its use.

The history of the company dates back to 1951 when it was named 'Carlo Compagno Confezioni' and specialized in producing trousers and uniforms. In the 1970s, the company transitioned to exclusively producing trousers and renamed itself 'Incotex'. In the early 1980s, the company underwent a change in leadership when the founder's sons took over.

Over the years, 'Incotex' experienced significant growth by acquiring other organizations, such as 'Motedoro' coat manufacturers, 'Maglifico Zanone' wool producers, and 'Glanshirt' specialists in elite shirts. Eventually, the overall umbrella structure, 'Slowear', was established. Each brand within the company now operates independently, utilizing a common platform for basic operations and benefiting from the reputation of the overall brand.

The core ideology remains consistent across all the company's projects, striving to produce garments that surpass existing analogs in quality and unforgettable designs. Alberto Biani seamlessly fits into this aesthetic with his unconventional perspective, fresh vision, and the ability to develop unique models. He has achieved incredible success within 'Incotex' and earned a reputation as one of the leading designers of the brand. Alberto continues to delight his fans with new and unconventional designs, never compromising on practicality and the highest quality.
