History in a nutshell
In the 1970s, Lucia Schiavi and Giuseppe Galli founded an accessories boutique in the historic center of Mantua, aiming to offer a unique and engaging experience. Passion, vision, and constant pursuit of excellence soon led them to collaborate with the most prestigious luxury brands, making the space a reference point for lovers of distinctive style.
Between 1980 and 2000, Folli Follie increased its visibility in Northern Italy with the opening of new boutiques in Brescia, Verona, Bologna, and Riccione. Each store is characterized by a distinctive style and an exclusive selection, positioning the company among the country's leading retailers. In 2016, Francesco Galli took the helm of Folli Follie, continuing the family business with his innovative vision.
Under his leadership, the company expanded into the digital market with the launch of TheDoubleF, an e-shop based in Milan, with a strongly editorial approach. Exclusive collaborations with Prada, Off-White, and Stone Island further solidified Folli Follie's position in the international fashion scene.
