The story behind Roberta di Camerino is as fascinating as the brand itself. Originally named Giuliana Coen, she was born in Venice in 1920. The brand's name, "Roberta di Camerino," is a blend of her daughter's name, Roberta, and her husband's surname, Camerino. In 1956, Giuliana Coen received the prestigious Neiman Marcus Award, known as the fashion Oscar, highlighting her exceptional talent and contribution to the industry. Seven years later, in 1963, she showcased her creations for the first time in the Sala Bianca of Palazzo Pitti in Florence, marking a significant milestone in her career. Throughout her illustrious career, Roberta di Camerino garnered a loyal following of admirers, including Grace Kelly, Elsa Maxwell, Princess Paola of Liege, Liz Taylor, Gina Lollobrigida, Isabella Rossellini, Farrah Fawcett, and Madonna. These iconic figures were often photographed with Roberta di Camerino's renowned Caravel bag, further cementing the brand's status as a symbol of elegance and sophistication. Although Giuliana Coen passed away in 2010, her legacy lives on through Roberta di Camerino's timeless haute couture garments and historic bags. These authentic relics of Italy's sartorial tradition continue to enchant fashion enthusiasts worldwide, gracing the shelves of the finest vintage boutiques and adorning celebrities and style icons alike.
