ALICE PONS
BRIDAL, PRÊT-À-PORTER AND BESPOKE WOMENSWEAR, EACH PIECE MADE TO ORDER AND BORN ENTIRELY IN MILANO, FROM THE FIRST SKETCH TO THE LAST STITCH FINISHED BY HAND.
HISTORICAL IN ITS BEAUTY, UNEXPECTED IN ITS SPIRIT: THE HOUSE MOVES BETWEEN CENTURIES, PAIRING THE ELEGANCE OF THE PAST WITH A CONTEMPORARY EYE. THIS DEVOTION TO DETAIL HAS BEEN RECOGNISED BY VOGUE, ELLE AND L'OFFICIEL.
ALICE BELIEVES IN KEEPING THE CRAFT CLOSE TO HOME: IN ITALIAN ATELIERS, IN THE HANDS OF SKILLED ARTISANS WHO ARE PAID AND TREATED FAIRLY, AND IN A SLOWER WAY OF MAKING CLOTHES THAT HONOURS THE ART OF DRESSMAKING.
"I FEEL THAT A DRESS SHOULD TRANSCEND ORDINARY LIFE AND TAKE YOU BEYOND CLOTHING: SOMEWHERE IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, LIKE TIME TRAVEL."
— ALICE PONS
THE HISTORICAL CORSET
ALICE PONS MILANO WAS FOUNDED IN MILAN IN 2019 AROUND ONE GARMENT: THE HISTORICAL CORSET.
MADE AS IT WAS
EACH CORSET IS BUILT THE WAY IT WAS IN THE SEVENTEENTH AND EIGHTEENTH CENTURIES: SHAPED ON THE FORMS OF THE PERIOD, BONED, LACED, AND CUT AND FINISHED BY HAND IN OUR MILAN ATELIER.
HISTORICAL SILHOUETTES REINTERPRETED FOR TODAY, IN FINE SILKS, COTTONS AND LINENS CHOSEN TO LAST.
THE ATELIER
WE KEEP VERY LITTLE STOCK AND MAKE MOST PIECES TO ORDER: NOTHING IS MADE WITHOUT A REASON.
COUTURE CORSETRY FOR THE BRIDE, FOR THE EVENINGS THAT MATTER AND FOR EVERY DAY, BY APPOINTMENT IN OUR ATELIER IN THE ARCO DELLA PACE AREA.
