About us
Embroidery, jacquard and exposed selvedges are just some of the stylistic features of Officinae, a fine tailoring workshop in downtown Bergamo.
A dream, that of making Italian craftsmanship known around the world, took shape in 2010, the year Paola decided to open her sartorial clothing workshop on Via Torquato Tasso, one of the city's most characteristic and charming streets.
A passion for sewing started long ago: growing up in a family in which everyone, with different skills and tasks, had always worked in the fashion world, Paola at the age of three already had needles in her hand. A precious art handed down from generation to generation, which she patiently learned to love thanks to grandmother Elda first and later with mother Liliana, who still collaborates in the creation of some of Officinae's garments.

SEARCH FOR QUALITY
From design and material research to the creation and packaging of the product: we always pay close attention to all the production details of our garments.
Any of our creations have a very long history and always begin with careful research of color, fabric and cut. Silk fabrics, taffeta, natural yarns such as wool and cotton are combined with jacquard work, strictly handmade embroidery, crocheted and patchwork creations, in a search for the most suitable materials that always plays a central role in our creations.
We strongly believe that every fabric can have many lives. We work hard to minimize any waste and to reuse every inch of fabric. What for industry are waste fabrics or simple color trials, for Officinae are precious and unique fabrics to be enhanced and given a new purpose
