COCCINELLE STORY

ALL FAIRYTALES HAVE A BEGINNING

1978

Founded in 1978 in Sala Baganza, in the Parma hills, Coccinelle has always been synonymous with the creation of fashionable leather bags and accessories with women’s needs in mind. The craftsmanship of the brand, the focus on the use of the finest Italian leathers and the meticulous attention to detail ensure the quality and durability of each piece, all of which are designed for the Coccinelle woman. Coccinelle’s mission is to celebrate women and their unique style.

2000

The first Milan showroom opens in Palazzo Valerio, a historic building in the Brera district. 

2018

Combining past, present and future, Coccinelle unveils a new concept in its flagship store on Corso Vittorio Emanuele in Milan – La Pasticceria Coccinelle. Designed by architect Roberto Baciocchi, this elegant lounge transforms shopping into a fully immersive experience and sets the tone for all the brand’s stores. A refined mix of materials, shapes and colours captures the essence of the brand’s femininity and contemporary style with minimalist elegance, highlighting the products that become the soul of the space alongside the real stars: the Coccinelle women.

2021

Coccinelle moves its new Milan headquarters and showroom to Via Forcella 5, in the heart of one of the world’s most iconic design districts. The location, a former coffee roastery known as Settimani, is an evocative space with its blend of industrial architecture and artistic restoration.

COCCINELLE: WOMEN FOR WOMEN

Everything about Coccinelle – from its name, inspired by the lucky ladybug, to the design of its bags and the layout of its stores – embodies the spirit of real women: modern, enterprising and dynamic. Talented, all-female teams bring the brand to life: from the in-house design team and the prototyping department with its unparalleled expertise, to the specialists in the finest Italian leathers, down to the women working in the supply chain and in retail.

CARING FOR OTHERS

Social responsibility is one of the fundamental principles of the Coccinelle brand, both internally and externally. Over the years, Coccinelle has carefully selected and supported several important charitable initiatives, reflecting its commitment to making a positive impact in the community.
