Lorenzo Martone

In 2013, Martone launched a line of bicycles with Martone Cycling Co. Having been dissatisfied with how previous bikes looked while being stored in his New York apartment, Martone was inspired by fashion when designing his own line of bicycles. The bikes come in monochromatic hues and feature matching tires, red chains, handlebar baskets, and a SRAM Duomatic gear hub for city riding. They were first available at the Paris boutique Colette and are now available at high end retail stores such as Saks Fifth Ave. Martone also collaborated with artist Justin Teodoro for the designs of the brand's accessory line.

Martone partnered with jewelry designer Jules Kim for his debut swimwear line called Nycked in November 2010.

Martone moved to New York City in 2008 and began working as the strategic planner for the ad agency Chandelier Creative. In 2009, Martone co-founded ARC NY with Ryan Brown—a talent agency that included clients such as Alessandra Ambrosio and Irina Shayk. The two partners decided to close the agency in 2011 and pursue separate ventures. Martone opened a fashion PR company called the Martone Agency shortly after. Since then, Caitlyn Shockley joined as partner and the company was renamed The Creative NYC and opened a showroom in Chelsea in May 2014.

Martone began dating designer Marc Jacobs in 2008. The couple became engaged in 2009, but eventually ended their relationship.
