about us
Who and What
Claudia D’Angelo is the founder of “ ENTIRELY ITALIAN MADE”. We are a Fashion Design and Development Agency specialising in leather goods, shoes, jewellery, hats, scarves and skin care.
”Person before profit”
We are a community of entrepreneurs who assist established brands and start-up companies worldwide to develop and produce "100% Made in Italy" fully certificated products.
We offer personalised services from a “Full Service” offering, which encompasses concept to production, including QC, to a specific “Single Task Service” as trend analysis, illustrations, concept/capsule collections development, customising material and sourcing suppliers based on target, prototyping, tech support for industrialisation, amortising costs and QC.
We promote and are actively working to bring back the culture of Slow Fashion with particular focus on the environment and sustainable practices. We use low impact, clean processes and recycled materials while also providing ethical fashion certificates.
Why
“Made in Italy” is in high demand again as a result of the recent “Reshoring” which is bringing manufacturing and services back to Italy from overseas due to a new consciousness and reborn interest in Eco/Slow Fashion and long-lasting products.
Despite this renewed interest, we have noticed that there is a gap between Italian Artisans and the international Brands who love Italian quality and would like to produce in Italy. The gap is due to a variety of factors including physical distance, differences in culture and language, and the low visibility of the Italian Artisans who produce entirely in Italy and are in direct competition with other big brands who produce overseas.
Our goal is to preserve the Italian ancient know-how while simultanously supporting small Italian businesses who have key competencies and a desire to focus on quality rather than investing their time and resources into marketing and advertising.
How
We aim to fill this gap and enlarge these collaborators’ businesses internationally by targeting the right audience for them. Business is first a Team job, and we aim to systematise the oftentimes confusing map of certified "100% Made in Italy" artisans into an organised, growing community and to offer leadership in that space to keep these businesses active and engaged.
We strategise methods to empower only the certified "100% Made in Italy" artisans who strive for excellence and share our vision of clean eco-friendly processes. If they fit our culture we will bring them in.
We will help these businesses by engaging new technologies, building modern and competitive brand identities without losing their authentic DNA, finding and connecting them with international customers who want to produce in Italy because they believe in long-lasting, quality products and responsible fashion like we do..
