Linda Farrow
Established in 1970, the LINDA FARROW brand of luxury eyewear rose quickly to acclaim. Originally a fashion designer herself, Linda was one of the first to treat sunglasses as fashion, her finger always on the pulse of the times. A tireless experimenter, Farrow pioneered many of the shapes and styles that remain au courant today. Her pioneering use of shape helped move eyewear into high-fashion territory, with avant-garde styles favoured by stars like Yoko Ono and working with brands such as Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga and Sonia Rykiel.
Yohji Yamamoto
Yohji Yamamoto’s work is characterised by a deep interest in textiles: their ability to ’embody’ a garment, their ability to lend strength to a fragile frame, their ability to allow the shape of the wearer to be imprinted on them, their ability to age gracefully. All these qualities that contribute to key aspects of Yohji Yamamoto’s oeuvre are made possible by the precise engineering of every fabric he uses. From deciding the exact balance between the warp and the weft of the fabric and dyeing it the ideal hue to establishing the number of washings required to achieve the perfect balance between new and old, every fabric Yamamoto uses is specially created and made in Japan. “…with this shirt and jacket, it was different. From the beginning they were new and old at the same time.” Wim Wenders

The Attico
The Attico is a collection of collectibles: brave items to fall in love with; feats of embellishment, opulence and seduction meant to be collected in time. There is a hint nostalgia to it all: a longing for sparkling times when glamour ruled and sequins, feathers and plunging necklines were a must. Gilda and Giorgia call it modern vintage. The collection is thought for women who are strong, spirited and individual. Women who play with seduction and sophistication, who are all about living large, and enjoying it in whichever way possible.
