Marta Scarampi: Timeless Italian Style

The Marta Scarampi brand is well known for their beautiful collection of capes. As seen in Town & Country, and Conde Nast Traveler, their capes are a dream! But did you know they also have a collection of timeless dresses in luxe fabrics?

Marta Scarampi Brand

Marta and Lucia Scarampi are the sisters behind the brand. The two work together to create a fashion line that is not only about dressing with style, but about a way of life. The inspiration for the brand is taken from their home town of Torino, Italy. Here, elegance is a part of life. From the stunning architecture, to the charming cafes, and the impeccable style worn by the women who work and live there, Torino is the perfect back-drop to this beautiful collection of Italian clothing.

The collections are for the modern woman who requires the ease of timeless style. The classic yet modern silhouettes allows you to go from work to play, and from day to night. Bringing Italian elegance to your every day. Marta is the creator who designs and produces these beautiful pieces, while Lucia runs the business side. Together, they have created the Marta Scarampi brand.

The Slow Fashion Movement

Marta Scarampi is a slow fashion brand. Rather than producing the latest trends in excess, Marta Scarampi focuses on designing and creating high-quality clothing to withstand the seasons. By having a made-to-order model, the production starts when you place an order. This produces less waste and less excess inventory that goes to land fills. Best of all, the turn around time form ordering to delivery in the US is about 2 weeks. I can tell you for sure that it is worth the short wait!

The Elena Dress

I’m wearing the Elena dress. This is one of the newest designs available. What I love most about this dress, is that it is so feminine yet the color is so modern and edgy. The fitted bodice paired with it’s tiered skirt, adding subtle volume, is so flattering. The fabric is a luxe cotton poplin with a bit of structure to it. I love to feel fabric. This one has a nice weight to it while it’s light and comfortable. You can easily see from the photos what a high-quality fabric this is.

In addition to the feel of the fabric itself, I love the way this dress makes me feel when I’m wearing it. There’s something special about putting on a garment that just makes you feel good. Feeling good adds confidence and that’s always a great thing. Also, I love the versatility of this dress. This is a dress you can wear to the Farmer’s market with flat slides, to brunch with a block heel, or for a night out with stilettos. It’s a versatile as you want it to be.

I know you will love this brand as much as I do! Marta Scarampi also has a beautiful selection of capes. Read about the Audrey Deco cape here, and the Rachel cape here.
