Maison Caovilla was founded in 1928, in Fiesso d'Artico, a few kilometres outside Venice. It is here, in the heart of the footwear tradition, that Edoardo Caovilla opened his laboratory in 1934. In the 1950s, his son René Fernando took over the company. Through his creations, he would turn things to fashion. Thanks to his passion and incredible creative skills, the fashion house has managed to stand out internationally.
