The Fiocchini dress was one of the first pieces Loretta Caponi designed in the late 1960s, and is inspired by a nightgown from the early 19th century that she found in an Italian flea market. Since its debut, it has remained a fundamental part of Loretta Caponi’s story, private collection and archive. It’s handcrafted in Italy with lace sourced from France due to its long-standing heritage as the finest purveyor.

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.
