It was the time when men started to take care in their appearance, and in their desire to evoke elegance began to don custom made clothing, in the most beautiful textiles, that were available. These were the garments that made us fell in love, ones that hark back to the best of days when many flocked to Naples from all over the world to study the city’s rich art and culture and also learned how to dress from the best tailors in the city. Olga caresses the cottons, linens, and prestigious woolens. She knows their scent and can identify their characteristics immediately, all the while observing her clients joy to her creations. And once on their way out the door, and into the world, pride overtakes all and she realizes years of family heritage coming to fruition. Throughout the years Olga took over the role of also of teacher and maintains a sense of joy that she had as a child.
