Jewellery background: In 2025 I celebrated 50 years in business. It is a first-generation company, I have been creating costume jewellery for over 50 years.

Your first fashion memories: My earliest fashion memories are linked to all the important names who brought Italian fashion to the international stage. Like Giorgini and the fashion shows in the Sala Bianca in Palazzo Pitti.

Vintage or new: Vintage and new are complementary to me, I wouldn't choose just one of the two. Moreover, I think that their combination creates a brand's identity.

Style icon: Vivienne Westwood because she knew how to live in every moment by being at the forefront and interpreting young people and change.

Who inspires you: Everyday life, what's happening in the world and women in general.

Museum or art gallery: Both, it depends on the Museum and the Exhibition, but I like to learn from the past and discover new things.

Pizza or Pasta: Pasta! Definitely a nice plate of pasta!

Best coffee where you live: Caffè del Verone, a nice coffee with a wonderful view of Florence.

Favourite pieces in the next Angela Caputi collection: Always the latest one! For next season, I'd say the "Horse" collection is my favourite.

Secret Addresses: More than a secret I would say little known… Corsini Garden, Horticultural Garden, and Stibert Museum in Forence.

Your favourite song: All of Lucio Dalla's interpretations
