The origins of Occhioni.
Hello,
.. I’m Lucia Occhioni, a designer and at the same time a new mother … who during the thousands of sleepless nights cradling my children, thought up and created functional and innovative products that filled the void I found when buying items for babies.
I’m proposing really practical, smart, sought after, quality products, combined with a surreal fairy atmosphere and irony that reflects my personality and that is as close as possible to the imagination of small children.
The logo that identifies the brand is an illustrated representation of my surname, (occhioni meaning ‘eyes’ in Italian) a quirky sketch that I have always used to sign my creations and drawings.
One night … there was surely a full moon! … I tried to imagine a fairytale and the Eyes became the animated protagonists of the brand ………
The company has only been able to become concrete and real thanks to the support and collaboration of my family and my special friend Valentina.
INSPIRATION
The mood comes from adult clothing, a mix of streetwear and sportswear which enables it to be dynamic, innovative and comfortable. The jumpsuit was the starting reference point from which the collection, in all its different variations developed.
This starting point together with good taste, quality, irony and functionality make the garments really sought after and unique.
PHILOSOPHY
STYLE DETAILS
Each product is focused on the well-being of your baby.
The technical decisions we made were first and foremost for comfort and practicality and have become our strength, details that distinguish and identify us.
THE SEAMS
The seams are strategically positioned on the outside of the garment to avoid irritating even the most delicate skin, making for an elegant and modern style.
THE LABELS
To avoid irritation, labels are placed at points that do not come into contact with the baby and for those purposes we have also chosen a ‘tear-off’ fabric whilst the brand logo always remains outside as a decorative feature.
