One school of thought assumes that progress is linear and gradual, whereas the other believes that we are dramatically thrust forward by a radical shift in our paradigm. The latter was the inspiration for Piu Fortio’s first collection, which seeks to push the boundaries of contemporary fashion and create a new, and better paradigm.
However, Piu Fortio is also steeped in tradition – using artisan methods passed down across the generations to create luxury handbags with a contemporary twist. A handbag for the enlightened 21st-century woman, combining timeless shapes with defined edges that match the Piu Fortio women who wear them.
Piu Fortio combines traditional colours like latte-beige, with more striking ones like corn-silk yellow, rustic brick, black, and dark cocoa brown. We also offer contrasting colour combinations like black & corn silk, pumpkin orange & black, and brick and black.
Piu Fortio’s handbags are defined by their signature plexiglass handles, which are sustainable and made from the leftover materials of old boats. This, combined with the highest quality vegetable-tanned leather, ensures that our bags are at the greener end of fashion and will stand the test of time.
This season Piu Fortio is offering three main shapes: Gean, Belli, and Doc, along with a miniature version of the Doc and Gean bags. Each piece has been painstakingly handcrafted to be an elegant, and functional companion that can be used from sunrise to sunset.
