History of the collection

The Bella Ciao collection is dedicated to the mondine , seasonal workers who came to work in the rice fields of Piedmont from the end of the 19th century to the middle of the 20th century to pull out weeds and prick the rice. For nearly a century, thousands of Italian women spent several months of the year hunched over doing difficult, intense, and poorly paid work.

Their famous pre-feminist and pre-revolutionary songs inspired masterpieces of Italian neorealist cinema, and their demands transformed the Italian historical landscape.

Bright shades, wild flowers and the insolence of angry youth: the Bella Ciao collection is designed to be colorful, and pays tribute to several generations of women who fought for their rights.

A true tribute to the rebels and the untameable, this botanical design restores the weed to its former gloryThe silk’s lightness echoes the childish joy of the mondine, like the blank page at the beginning of every story. At the heart of this aquatic garden, the vibrant flowers are indissociable from resilient wild plants, which often harbour hidden treasures. The paintbrush touches accentuate the breeziness of the watercolours and give them strength and character.

What makes the Acqua scarf unique : the white silk dazzling in the sun, enhanced by the magnificent nuances of watercolor.
