This Florentine brand embodies a unique philosophy: "by women, for women," creating collections that understand and celebrate the complexity of modern femininity.
The Antonelli story begins in 1950 when Luciano Antonelli founded a lingerie manufacturing company under the name Vicad in Castelfiorentino, just outside Florence. The brand's transformation into a contemporary fashion house came in 1999 when Luciano's daughter, Enrica Antonelli, joined the company and launched the first couture line of women's tops. This marked the beginning of a new era that truly honored the sophistication and needs of the modern woman. In 2001, Enrica and her sister Roberta officially established Antonelli Firenze as we know it today.
The brand experienced a pivotal evolution in 2012 when it expanded beyond its signature blouses to create complete total-look collections including trousers, skirts, jackets, coats, and knitwear. This comprehensive approach maintained the excellence of Italian-made apparel while offering women a cohesive wardrobe solution. The third generation continued this legacy when Enrica's son, Marco Berni, took the helm as CEO, steering the company toward international expansion while preserving its artisanal roots.
Antonelli Firenze's success is reflected in impressive growth figures—the brand achieved 100% sales growth between 2021 and 2023, with turnover exceeding €20 million. Today, the brand distributes to over 20 countries worldwide through a network of 650 clients, including prestigious department stores.
The collections are characterized by sophisticated elegance, refined craftsmanship, and architectural designs that empower the wearer. From flowing silk dresses to precisely tailored blazers, each piece is handcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, using premium materials that ensure both comfort and durability. Antonelli Firenze celebrates sophisticated femininity—confident, aware, and uncompromising in her choices.
