WHO WE ARE
TAILOR MADE
SHIRTS
IN TURIN
50 YEARS OF PASSION FOR DETAILS
We are a historic Italian shirtmaker in Turin, named after its owner Carmen. Her workshop experience began at the age of 14 and continued with her decision to establish her own business in 1975.
This experience and continuity are strengthened by the presence of her daughter Roberta, who has leveraged her extensive experience from the Fashion and Costume Art Institute in shirtmaking.
In TURIN, in the heart of the city, CARMEN has become a REFERENCE POINTand synonymous of REFINED ELEGANCE for those seeking a TAILOR-MADE SHIRT.
In fact, the shirt shop does not offer ready-made shirts but only a wide selection of the best fabrics available on the market.
Our tailor-made shirts are designed and crafted according to the customer’s wishes, personally produced by Carmen and her daughter Roberta, with the valuable assistance of Mrs. Maria, in the attached in-store workshop.

CARMEN
Born in San Severo, Puglia, in 1948, she moved with her family to Turin at the age of 3. At 14, she began apprenticing in shirtmaking workshops, learning its secrets. After years of experience in Turin’s workshops, at the age of 26, she opened her first store in the Parella area. With over 50 years dedicated exclusively to bespoke tailoring, she continues to work with passion and curiosity, passing down her knowledge to her daughter Roberta.
ROBERTA
She was born in Turin in 1972 and spent her childhood surrounded by fabric scraps and sewing machines. She graduated from the Aldo Passoni Institute of Art for Fashion and Costume Design. After an initial experience in graphic design, she joined her mother Carmen in the workshop, learning the secrets of the ancient craft of bespoke shirtmaking.
