OUR MANIFESTO
Born to empower. We have always been on the side of women. Relentlessly, we have never followed rules. Never will.
For us, the status quo is always to be challenged. Our journey is about giving women a voice through timeless fashion. A voice that sometimes whispers, a voice that sometimes shouts out loud. A unique voice. A personal voice. For us, creativity, quality, and style are mediums of expression. An extraordinary journey dedicated to women.
We will never settle. The stakes are high. We feel guardians of something unique. Your skin. Your sensations. Your feelings. Being fearless implies responsibility. Living passionately requires discipline. Freedom is priceless. Our odyssey has been epic.
Since 1950. Always.
For you. For all.
