This story begins more than thirty years ago on a mermaid-shaped island at the extreme edge of the Aeolian Islands archipelago: Filicudi.
In this magical place, from which the coast of Sicily seems like a distant mirage, Daniela Fadda created, in 1989, the first model of a line of minimal swimwear, designed for living on the island and immersing yourself in Nature, made without seams, in stretch cotton and with a timeless style capable of enhancing the unique grace of every woman’s body.
Today that small artisan business has become, thanks to Daniela’s son, Cristiano Fini and his wife Sara Goldschmied, ISOLE & VULCANI, a brand known in the world of beachwear in which the passion, attention and care for details of Daniela’s first creations has become the search for an essential aesthetic, perfect For Natural Islanders because these swimsuits are the only thing you really need to immerse yourself in your sea.
All ISOLE &VULCANI creations maintain the flair of an artisanal product, but with a contemporary focus on sustainability and respect for the marine environment.
Following an idea of circularity and conscious consumption, each piece in the collection is sold individually, with the idea of being able to combine it with all the others: in this sense, the practice of Mix & Match that the brand teaches all islanders is not just a playful invitation, but a production philosophy.
There are no out-of-fashion colors, no old collections, no out-of-production models, but there is style, a taste for quality, the uniqueness of newcombinations.
ISOLE &VULCANI‘s attention to the environment is also revealed in the choice of an organic cotton* produced in Italy, in the use of natural dyes, and in the packaging made exclusively of cotton, with which over the years the use of plastic materials has been reduced to a minimum, giving validity to the concept of conscious contemporary craftsmanship with which it loves to define itself.
Thanks to Daniela’s intuition, Cristiano’s vision and Sara’s artistic direction, today ISOLE &VULCANI is the simple and profound expression of being in contact with Nature, experiencing the landscape, walking unexplored paths, immersing yourself in the water, warming yourself in the sun, respecting the environment that welcomes us, recharges us, supports us.
*The cotton used in ISOLE&VULCANI garments is GOTS (Global Organic Texture Standard) certified in both the use of organic cotton and the dyeing process.
