Material girl

From "materialistic girls", in the true sense of the word, which we go around Italy looking for leathers and fabrics with which to create our bags is probably one of our favorite activities. We could walk for hours in the colorful corridors touching, moving or creating combinations. Sometimes we are so concentrated that we lose sight of each other and then find ourselves a few hours later with our arms full. Equally often the enthusiasm makes you buy much more than you should. We could never leave out a particular velvet that captured our gaze by chance, or the incredible opportunity of some printed leather of particular value or tone. And this is also how some of our models were born: from a sudden idea or passion. The blue velvet of Aeolus, glimpsed by chance rolled up on a shelf, the fabric of Narcissus found while looking for something else. On the other hand, we never tire of repeating that each piece was born with feeling. I believe that certain unexpected combinations have seen the light thanks to the fact that touch and sight have led us into deep temptation. A temptation that, of course, we couldn't resist.
