Clothing

Fortela womenswear is an ecosystem of inspirations that bring to life garments with traditional elegance, harmoniously blending diverse influences. Pants and skirts are crafted from premium fabrics and come in various fits. Particularly noteworthy are our women’s denim pieces, some of which are made in Italy, authentically reproducing traditional production methods. For example, our JOHN33 jeans are made from vintage denim fabric and sewn on Union Special sewing machines, adorned with Fortela-branded rivets and a leather patch. Dresses and jumpsuits are designed to create timeless elegance. Our Navajo-inspired caftan dresses showcase geometric beadwork embroidery and a thoughtful selection of materials that combine practicality, comfort, and esthetics. These vintage women’s garments are a must-have for discerning women who enjoy blending seemingly contrasting styles. Outerwear, suits and jackets are the result of extensive research into materials and designs, created for women seeking non-restrictive, lightweight, and almost ethereal garments. Details make the difference, such as silver buttons with turquoise stones. Overshirts, vests, shirts and knitwear reflect Fortela’s philosophy, in collections with an authentic vintage feel. The careful selection of materials merges with traditional lines, creating luxurious women’s clothing that appeals to those who appreciate Italian style and craftsmanship. Fortela’s commitment to sustainability is evident in its partnership with Manteco, a globally recognized leader in sustainable luxury fashion. Renowned for its high level of innovation and intelligent research, Manteco has been instrumental in advancing “fabric archaeology” that has achieved excellence through technological innovations and dedicated projects. This all-Italian collaboration has led to iconic pieces such as the Winston Coat, a tribute to the legacy of Sir Winston Churchill, celebrating an iconic garment with timeless appeal.
