About Arnoldo][Battois

Behind the label Arnoldo][Battois, there are two stylists from Venice: Silvano Arnoldo and Massimiliano Battois. They met at the faculty of Architecture of Venice and discovered their common passion: fashion. Scrupulous and perfectionist types, what brought them together was their taste for beautiful things, the passion for research, the recuperation of materials in total expressive liberty and their attention to detail. A rich work experience (Mila Schön, Marzotto group, Scherrer, Cardin, Laura Biagiotti, René Caovilla...), flows into the long collaboration with Roberta di Camerino which was fundamental for their growth as professionals and for the discovery of a new passion: the bag accessory.

In 2001, armed with the professional experience acquired through various years of work, they took on the challenge to create clothing and accessories with their own label and to test their marketability by opening a shop in Venice. The clothing and accessories that they produced were made from a highly specialised craftsmanship from the Riviera of Brenta. They obtained a very positive reaction from the beginning, both from the national clients and especially the international clients, who appreciated the originality and quality of the materials and craftsmanship.

In 2006, they were called to teach on the Design and Fashion degree course at the Faculty IUAV of Venice. This course was headed by Maria Luisa Frisa: from 2006-07, they held the laboratories for the design of Clothing and Accessories. The work completed up until this point obtained optimal results, with the goods being distributed in prestigious stores as well as major international stores and with collection after collection earning main reviews in the sector, as the important insertion in “Percorsi di creatività 3” (“Fashion”, December 2004, LVMH) in Bag category. They participated in 'Who is on next?' 2010, international competition organized by Vogue Italy and AltaRoma, and they are inserted between the three finalists in the accessories category.

On September they showed SS 2011 collection during Milan Fashion Week, at the event organized by Vogue Italy and Vogue USA in Palazzo Morando, with the presence of Anna Wintour, Franca Sozzani and the most important names of fashion system.
