We are located in Gallarate in the Province of Varese just a few minutes from Milan Malpensa airport and less than an hour's drive from Milan / Como / Lugano / Bergamo.

We work with both structured companies, professionals and VAT-registered businesses. If your idea is to create your own project and start selling, sooner or later you will need to open a VAT number. However, if you want to start developing your own collection or brand without any immediate constraints, there is no problem: we can help you right away.

We offer operational services for fashion - as pattern making, prototyping, textile printing and collection development - together with customised strategic consulting to guide you in your creative and business choices.

Don't worry! We advise you to book a free call with a member of our team who will be able to guide and advise you best! 

If you are shy or prefer to learn more, we suggest you read our book: “You too want to be a designer?” which encapsulates our entire method.

We have built in almost ten years a agile and flexible structurecapable of handling any type of production: from a few garments per model up to thousands of pieces. Only the budget makes the difference.

We have a tested method divided into several steps where we will start from the idea through to the prototype and then production. At every stage you will be at the centre of the creative process and you will always know what is going on!

We have been doing this job for more than ten years, we are the only style office in Italy focused on emerging designers and start-up projects.

Why are we the only one? Because making fashion small in Italy is very difficult especially for beginners who do not have the right network of contacts.

We have developed a METHOD to build your products and your brand with precise price and market logic that combines the right creativity with the right product.
