Maria La Rosa

Maria la Rosa is a label founded by the eponymous Sicilian designer. She established her offices in Milan, where she studied fashion. Today her two daughters Alice and Lisa have taken over the family business by bringing freshness and creativity. One studied design at Polytechnic of Milan and the other foreign languages at the Catholic University. The exclusive and limited creations from Italy are sold in selective boutiques around the world such as certain fashion boutiques in Europe and Japan and Barney's in the United States. Maria la Rosa advocates the handmade, whether it is for bags, shawls, hats, socks, certain ready-to-wear pieces and jewelry. They use inventiveness and creativity by playing with materials and techniques. Cotton, linen, silk, cashmere and alpaca are worked with traditional and ancestral techniques such as weaving, macramé, but also knitting, crochet and embroidery to make the pieces unique.
