SAVOCA
‘The Royal Collection’
‘The Royal Collection', is a triad of unique hand-crafted Haute Couture caps that celebrate a new Era. A collection of wearable art that bridges fine craftsmanship and the everyday. Through the collection, SAVOCA mission is to inspire elevated thinking and remind us that every decision, no matter how small, leaves an impact on others. True heroism is found in putting people at the heart of every choice.
Heritage is the base of SAVOCA spirit, taking inspiration from a constant dialogue between tradition and modernity, the street and the salon, the décor and the purpose. A stunning juxtaposition of materials and techniques is embedded in each of my creations — the result of rigorous artisanal savoir-faire, guided by a sense of aesthetics and tailored legacy.

Millinery Heritage
“Becoming a milliner allowed me to merge my skills as a contemporary fashion designer and a craftsman in wood and leather. Hat blocking became the natural link, enabling me to explore manual dexterity and fabric knowledge. It offered a way to honor tradition while introducing a contemporary perspective.
Creativity and craftsmanship run in my family. My grandmother was a talented seamstress, and my great-grandfather was a tailor specialising in creating clothing for dolls in the early 20th century. I believe their dedication to detail and passion for their craft deeply influenced my journey and appreciation for traditional techniques. While they worked on garments in miniature and by hand, I now apply similar precision and care in millinery. Honouring this heritage, I embrace the artistry passed down through generations, merging it with my own design perspective. This personal connection makes my work even more meaningful.”
About SAVOCA
My passion for creation began early, leading to a Master's Degree in Craftsmanship in wood and leather, followed by a Master's in Fashion Design from Istituto Marangoni. After moving to London, I gained experience in luxury fashion, working on eveningwear for events like the Oscars, Cannes Film Festival, and BAFTAs.
With a multicultural background from Italy, Switzerland, and the UK, I developed SAVOCA, with collections combining traditional techniques with modern design. The heritage of hat-making inspires me to celebrate its artistry while contributing to its evolution for the 21st century.
