Overview

Alberta Ferretti is a fashion brand whose origins date to 1974, when Italian designer Alberta Ferretti presented a collection under her own name. Following its runway debut in Milan, the brand has focused primarily on women’s prêt-à-porter, offering dresses, accessories, bags, shoes, and other items. It is characterized by lightweight chiffon, embroidery and lace, and the feminine lines of slip dresses, and is guided by the principle of “a contemporary interpretation of lightness, femininity, individuality, and romanticism.” The brand has diffusion lines such as Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti and operates internationally under the Aeffe Group.
