The creators of the first luxury shearling

Handmade in Molvena.
Since 1968.

The genesis of many fashion icons is uncertain. No one knows who invented the tuxedo, nor the miniskirt, nor even lace-up shoes. Luxury women’s shearling, on the other hand, has a father, a date and a place of birth.

It was in 1968 that Manlio Sorio created the first “luxury shearling” in his atelier in Molvena, inspired by a style icon: Monica Vitti.

The rest is history: a history spanning more than 50 years. Christia’s story.
