Seventeen production areas, one closed network of Italian factories, ateliers and pattern making studios.

We do not own a factory. We own the relationships: over 40 mills across Italy, England, France and Japan, more than five historical factories in luxury ready to wear and tailoring, three houses of master tailors in Lombardia and six pattern making studios. Every project is matched to the workshop that does that one thing better than anyone else. Milano, since 2017.

THE ARTISAN NETWORK

Around the studios sits the wider network: cutters, hand sewers, finishers and quality controllers who see the garment through to the box.

Every one of them works to the same approved sample, so what leaves the factory is what you signed off.

How a production runs

01

Brief and feasibility

You send sketches, references or a tech pack. We tell you what it takes to build it, in materials, in time and in minimums.

02

Sourcing

Fabrics and trims are selected from the mills and suppliers that fit the hand, the weight and the season you are after.

03

Pattern and prototype

One of the six studios drafts the pattern. We prototype, fit, correct and prototype again until the sample is right.

04

Approved sample

The approved sample becomes the standard. Nothing goes into production until it exists and you have signed it off.

05

Production and control

The run is placed with the specialist factory for that product. We control it in line and on exit, then we ship.
