VITELLI - SUSTAINABLE FASHION IN THE HEART OF MILAN

👤 Who founded Vitelli, where and when

Vitelli was founded in Milan, the Italian capital of fashion and innovation 🇮🇹.The brand was created by extremely talented and innovative designers Mauro Simionato and Giulia Bortoli, with the goal of offering an alternative vision to dominant fast fashion models.

From the very beginning, the project has stood out as an independent, niche, young, and artisanal reality, deeply rooted in Milan while maintaining an international outlook.

🎯 Mission & Vision

Mission: to create sustainable garments through the use of regenerated yarns, recovered materials, and industrial surplus, reducing environmental impact and enhancing what already exists.

Vision: to demonstrate that sustainability is not a creative limitation, but its most powerful driving force. Vitelli aims to redefine contemporary elegance by combining experimental aesthetics, research, and environmental responsibility.

The brand promotes conscious consumption, encouraging customers to choose garments designed to last over time — in both quality and identity — going beyond seasonal trends.

👕 Core Business: Sustainable Clothing Production

At the heart of Vitelli’s activity is the production of sustainable clothing, with a strong focus on innovative knitwear.

Key distinctive elements include:

• 🧵 Upcycling of recovered yarns (APP Cycling)

• 🌈 Use of materials from industrial waste and surplus stock

• 🪡 The iconic “Maya” knitting technique, crafted with almost sartorial care

• 🏭 Predominantly local production with a short supply chain

• 📍 Support for local territory and high-quality standards

Each garment tells a story made of refined textures, vibrant colors, and unique details. In an era dominated by overproduction, Vitelli chooses the opposite path: less quantity, more value.

The brand is available in selected boutiques across Europe, strengthening its position as a virtuous example of sustainable entrepreneurship.
