You may know the biggest brands out there such as Gucci and Dolce & Gabbana but there are many exciting designers you may not of heard of.

Let’s take a look at 10 clothing labels you really should know…

1.No.21

Since 1998 Alessandro Dell’Acqua has been making waves on the Italian fashion scene. His  collection ‘No.21’ is his first since leaving his post at Malo in 2010. Named after his daughters birthday, the 80 piece collection includes gorgeous knitwear and wonderful outerwear.

2.Peserico

Established in 1962 by Mary Peserico, this italian fashion brand prides itself on handcrafted garments. They combine precise tailoring with highly researched fabrics. This ensures every purchase is guaranteed quality. This family run business started as a simple market stall and grew into a world leading brand. Their carefully crafted skirts are particularly sophisticated. They have now branched out into the world of shoes since the new creative director, Riccardo Peruffo took over.

3.TWINSET Milano

TWINSET has recently opened a store in London with great success. They specialise in knitwear, taking inspiration from the bohemian look. Simona Barbieri launched the label in 1990. Her vision has turned the company into one of the most admired in Italy.

4.Liu Jo

Liu Jo started out as a tiny textile company before evolving into a major Italian brand. They now have over 130 shops across Italy and over a hundred world wide. They hit the big time when Kate Moss modelled for them in 2013. Their quicky styles are perfect for formal and casual events.

5.Simone Rocha

Daughter of John Rocha, this Irish designer may very well eclipse her father in the fashion world. Her subversive, feminine style has already singled her out as a designer to keep your eye on. Rocha keeps her designs and fabrics simple and clean, the very opposite to her father’s sense of style!

6.Needle and Thread

Known for their ultra feminine style and complex bead work. Their wonderful dresses hark back to the sixties and flower power but without the cheesy fancy dress feel. You can find anything you’re looking for with this brand from maxi dresses to wedding gowns.

7.Jucca

Perfectly boho. Jucca mixes vintage patterns with awesome lines. Layering pattern after pattern to create conceptual and magnificent designs. Jucca dresses are like how a young Marianne Faithfull might dress in 2019.

8.8PM

Such an awesome brand for formal wear. They create unique cuts that turn casual looking garments into something you could wear at, well, 8pm. Versatile, offbeat and cutting edge, it looks like 8PM are here to stay.

9.PINKO

Created by married couple Pietro Negra and Cristina Rubini during the mid 80s. The PINKO style is one of expressive independence. Their collections always stand out from the crowd due to the eclectic nature of the brand. Always a head of the game, the PINKO look appeals to women worldwide.

10.Dixie

Dixie clothes scream of elegance and sensuality. A sense of luxuriance jumps out at you when you see someone wearing Dixie. Definitely one for formal evening attire. Dixie are another Italian company that only uses the finest of fabrics and expert making techniques.
