Vague, already clear and precise or no ideas at all?

An high-tech and hyper-radiant BaoBao? An hand-knitted or printed with rollers and airbrushes cashmere? Or hard-to-find and alchemic fragrances? Or, why not, unforgettable multi-layers scarves, warm and ornamental? But also less recognizable accessories for the everyday life or on the contrary guessed marvels to be kept on our side for the best moments…

Essentially, even this year we are arrived on time to the period ritual question: What am I giving to…? But it could be even more immediate and self-rewarding: What I wish to gift me…?

It has been a while since we not coming back to the space/workshop that contains every our activity: online catalogue composition, shop windows, communications, presentations and everything in general gives life to the shop. In fact everything takes place inside the boutique in Via Santa Lucia, in Padua city centre. Here the collections selected during the buying campaign find their placement, they are interpreted and put together in combinations possible only in context where different brands live together, as happens in our space. For this reason it seems to us interesting sharing fresh seasonal glimpses that is not possible to imagine just watching the pictures on the website.

Talking about this…any suggestion to improve our job? The pictures with a darker background, lights and shades extending the garments movement, slow down the catalogue exploration or instead allow to understand with more likelihood the wearability of jackets, dresses, sweaters, etc?…
