Loretta Caponi

Loretta Caponi’s introduction of nightwear in the late 1960s signalled a welcome departure from the synthetic materials that dominated the period, as hers were realised in the highest quality cottons, linens and silks. Since, the Florentine atelier has continued to honour this reputation for the finest make, host to a vast fabric assortment and an ever-growing embroidery archive of 20,000+ designs – some of which date back to the 1800s. Today, her daughter and grandson – Lucia and Guido – keep this historic and highly skilled needlework alive by working with a network of artisans all within 90km of central Florence. Not only does this provide job opportunities to an ageing population, but also encourages them to tutor new seamstresses and enjoy a slower rhythm of production.
