Everyone knows that Tuscany is the Italian region of wine and Florence is one of most important cities of fashion and style with its fashion events every year.

Maybe no one could imagine that one of its inhabitants join these two symbols of made in Italy. Someone does one’s best to find the way to unite wine and fashion in an innovative and environmentally friendly concept.

It’s called Piel y Vino and it’s the company who created an innovative method to colouring leather, spun yarns and paper with wine’s refuse.

At Pitti Immagine Uomo made in Florence last week visitors have admired, in a Pub near Old Bridge, the extraordinary effects of this colouring on dresses, shoes and bags.

So three new brands are borning from the brilliant mind of Tommaso Cecchi De’ Rossi: PelleEVino, FiloEVino e CartaEVino. When born a business with ecologic principles and from the union of two tipical products of Made in Italy and specially, of Made in Tuscany, like wine and fashion style and is developed in three areas that are the essential of Tuscany economy: leather near Pisa, paper at Lucca and textile at Prato and also, is eco-friendly we can’t do other than wish the best for the future, we wish to PelleEVino and its Founders make success in all world.
