Our Story

Prima Vera was never meant to be a fashion brand. It was meant to be a feeling — the quiet confidence of wearing something made with absolute care, by hands that understood what they were making.

"I did not want to make clothes. I wanted to make objects that happened to be worn."

Marco Ferretti, Founder

Timeline

Two Decades of Making

2002

Founded in Milan

Marco Ferretti opens a small atelier on Via della Moda with a single sewing machine, two assistants, and an unshakeable belief that luxury should feel personal.

2005

First Collection

The debut Prima Vera collection — twelve pieces, all in cream and black — sells out within a week at La Rinascente. The PV monogram is born.

2008

Paris Expansion

A boutique opens on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Parisian editors take notice. Vogue France calls Prima Vera "the quiet revolution from Milan."

2012

London Flagship

The Regent Street flagship opens, cementing Prima Vera's position as a truly European house. The London store becomes the brand's most visited location.

2016

The Velvet Red Era

The introduction of Velvet Red as a signature accent colour marks a new creative chapter — bolder, more confident, yet still rooted in restraint.

2020

Sustainability Pledge

Prima Vera commits to net-zero by 2030, transitions to 100% organic cotton, and launches the PV Repair Programme — free lifetime repairs for every garment.

2022

B Corp Certified

Prima Vera becomes one of the first Italian luxury houses to achieve B Corp certification, recognised for its impact on workers, community, and environment.

2026

Today

Three flagships, seventeen countries, and over two decades of quiet craftsmanship. The atelier on Via della Moda still hums with the same energy as day one.

What We Stand For

Our Values

Restraint

We believe in doing less, better. Every detail is considered. Nothing is added without purpose.

Longevity

We design for decades, not seasons. A Prima Vera piece should outlast every trend it encounters.

Integrity

From the farms where we source our cotton to the artisans who cut our cloth — we hold ourselves to the highest standard at every step.

Intimacy

We are not a mass brand. We make considered pieces for considered people. That relationship matters to us deeply.
