Sensitive, creative, concrete: this is Barbara Bertoldo, the creative director of l'Opificio.

Born in Turin, where she attended the historic Art Institute for Fashion and Costume, she successfully collaborated for a long time with some of the best-known companies in the fashion industry. A personal and professional experience that has formed a woman and a designer irresistible, pragmatic, communicative and with many cultural interests.

With the support of her sister Paola in 1998 she made the great decision: to have total freedom of expression and to create a new design dimension with a strong identity. With l’Opificio she opened a new chapter, a chance to get involved and to experiment.

Her creations are the expression of an innate sensitivity to beauty and of a constant and careful research that looks at design and fashion. With humour and an extraordinary personal coherence, her collections seem to play a sophisticated game between similarities and contrasts and are designed to make harmonic and unconventional combinations.
