Greta Pigatto, Almodoro5:

Why almodoro5 ?
“Aldomoro5” is my address, i.e. street and house number, this is a workshop, my home-studio, where I work and live, where my two brands were born: MADELEINE_couture (accessories and apparel LIMITED EDITION) and HWART hand+work+art (unique pieces furnishing complements).

Greta Pigatto loves amazing herself, getting curious, being astonished at the shapes, colours and any sense which might be aroused by an idea. A childhood made of manga cartoons, drawn for hours on end till contours would fade away, her adolescence later dedicated to artistic and graphic studies. Important work experiences in the fashion field as product graphic designer and as a women-and-kids line external consultant for a renowned company in the sector . Today she simply is what she wants to be.

“I’ve decided to pursue my dream: to open a labo-boutique, a project which has become my world and which brings my colours and emotions along, a working plan in full growth. To create, decorate, have fun taking myself seriously…but not necessarily! I believe in the magic of wonder sparked by a red satin ribbon or by the sound of a necklace laid on cotton.”

HWART, cups, vases, sundries-bowls and plates made of magic, originality and rigorously Italian class. Objects for the pleasure of furnishing, in unique pieces to exhibit, personalised by vibrant ideas. And for all enthusiasts of chic-retrò, which only the skilful fingers of a woman can spin and bring back to life, even the wrapping which contains the object becomes a gift from other times.

Decorated and personalised boxes conceal, just like enchanted caskets, sets of plates and cups; selected and hand-made fabrics protect, embellished by ribbons and fragrances, each decorated sundries-bowl. Here cardboard, fabric, silk, colour and paper acquire the dignity, delicacy and lively exuberance nowadays packaging cannot afford to have.

Madeleine Couture should be welcomed as the smile of a sexy-chic Lolita and proposes alluring accessories, decorated T-Shirts and bijoux with a rebellious elegance.
Entirely hand-made products, hence unique and unrepeatable. Creations dedicated to whoever loves exhibiting exclusive details, rich in feminine and scathing charm; objects to wear thought also, and above all, for the most demanding eyes.
