PART ONE

… “‘and the living’ is easy…you'll spread your wings, and you’ll take to the sky.”

These great lyrics from the master composer George Gershwin seem to capture the soul of summer, a time of year when footloose and fancy-free take on a whole new meaning. All thanks to gracious accomplices like the brightness of the sun, the longer days, and nature in full bloom. With them as our daily companions, we feel the pull to unshackle from the day-to-day, be it in the city or on holiday.

Our way of dressing changes too. Inspired by the beauty of simplicity cradled in the essence of creativity, but always with that special touch of elegance. No capricious fashion trends or diktats in sight! And so we move towards bright colors, lightweight fabrics, and fun, easy accessories that give the perfect starting point to creating distinctive ensembles that signal, instantly, a uniquely-you attitude.

Cristina and Myriam love all seasons; however, summer seems to have an edge over the others. This may have something to do with spending so much more time outdoors, the demands of which would suggest grooming in style and indeed comfort.

We have accessories that really tick all the boxes. Just peek at our website for fabulous looks…

With love,

Cristina and Myriam

What is Italian Craftsmanship?

It is exceptionalism in production by hand, and it comprises tradition, competence, techniques and distinctly good taste rooted in cultural heritage, artistic and natural, unique in the world. What differentiates these products is high-quality materials handled expertly with imagination with particular attention to details and finishes. Every product brings along with it an authentic story of tradition and beauty. Every product is distinctive and incomparable, and like a work of art, timeless, but with the bonus that it has utility.

So, who are the proponents of this precious segment?

The Master Artisans, an inexhaustible force who are highly specialised and professional, the sons and daughters of generations and generations of artisans who pass on their knowledge and wisdom.

Organised into small, mainly family-run companies fuelled by passion for their work and always honour bound to high quality, they respect and revere tradition, but with an eye on innovation. Ingenious and curious, attentive to the evolution of practices, and above all to the arrival of new materials and techniques.

They are in perpetual motion, researching, experimenting, inventing, and transforming. With an ability to integrate tradition with innovation, they attract more youth to undertake the path of Artisanship making this segment increasingly more significant. It is not happenstance, that the most renowned luxury houses in France tap Italian artisans to create new product lines.

We hope you have enjoyed our blog post thus far, and we also hope we have answered some of your questions. There is more on why Italian Craftsmanship is worth every penny.
