“I love the tension between something very traditional and the Australian ease, our very relaxed way of life,” Monica Upton said. “I always want to respect the craft because it’s this time honored, impeccable thing, to work with families of artisans who specialize in leather. I love paying respect to that work. I think the magic of VESTIRSI is that fusion of Italian craftsmanship with this Australian laid back ease. I love the friction and the fusion between those two elements and I think that’s where our DNA comes from. We love that tension and it’s something that no one can really replicate or copy and we try to infuse that throughout all the designs.”
