Once upon a time in the south of Italy, there lived a little girl called Amalia with her sewing machine. Aged 10, Amalia was already making clothes. This early passion quickly translated into a fulfilling career; from making shirts for Armani and Max Mara to later become a talented prototypist; taking a design, formulating a pattern and turning it in to something special. This natural talent was further cultivated through working on collections and very elaborate garments for the likes of Jean Paul Gaultier, John Galliano, Brioni, amongst others. Amalia’s passion has been passed down through generations.

Eli & Amalia is a family run, sustainable and ethical brand which is committed to using recycled fabrics to minimise the impact of fashion on the environment.

Founded by Husband and Wife duo Nadine and Fabio (Amalia’s son) they take inspiration from the sense of adventure and fun in their son Eli, to produce designs which are bright, vibrant and quirky to delight and inspire small imaginations.
