Good quality products are important to improve the quality of life.

Silk is considered a symbol of luxury and elegance. It is also known as the "queen of fabrics" thanks to its natural beauty.

The Chinese maintained a monopoly on silk production for thousands of years, exporting to Europe and the Middle East via the legendary Silk Road.

The process of natural cotton growth is not regulated and the fiber is stronger and therefore more flexible during production.
The organic cotton we use, is selected within the knowledge of having low impact on the environment. Cotton has many benefits, it has hypoallergenic, antibacterial and breathable qualities. Cotton gives your skin a pleasant feeling of freshness and wellbeing. It can be soft, elegant and warm or crisp, casual and cool.

LEATHER
Within a logic of circular economy and the constant waste of materials in fashion, we chose real good quality leather by optimizing out resources. The leather skins we selected for the collection are natural dyed and one of a kind pieces.
The idea is to use already existing and high-quality materials before having to produce again. We consider the hides to be noble materials and that is why we use only the best options possible. We feel humble when we can use such a beautiful animal product within mini wardrobe. We believe in innovation towards this sustainable and circular production process.
