Part of the collection is dedicated to family heirlooms: tablecloths, bed sheets and other textiles passed down through generations are transformed into unique garments to wear, continuing the story of each generation. From a grandmother’s tablecloth to a dress for her granddaughter, every piece preserves the memory of the original textile and gives it a new life.
The main materials are white bed sheets made from 100% recycled cotton, sourced from Italy or other countries depending on availability. The buttons are made from semolina-based cellulose, imported from Spain, while the labels are made from recycled satin and produced in Italy.
Production is artisanal and local. Francesca personally oversees the design and prototyping in her studio and works with small workshops, tailors, embroiderers and laundries across Italy. She also occasionally collaborates with artists and artisans to create small capsule collections, such as the FRii shirt collar brooches.
All garments are made to order, so extra sizes, custom measurements or modifications can be requested to suit individual needs. Some designs are also produced as one-of-a-kind pieces or in very limited quantities.
The REWORKED Studio line was created to prevent further waste. It includes production prototypes and garments that have been given a new life through restyling, making them available at a more accessible price.
FRii shirt gives new life to textiles that would otherwise be discarded, transforming them into contemporary garments that carry the memory of their past into the future.
