Boboutic

Boboutic is an Italian designer knitwear label, founded in Florence in 2000 by knitwear designer Michel Bergamo and architect and photographer Cristina Zamagni. The duo set out to take everyday experience and inject it into knitwear, and in 2012 they were joined by fashion designer Niccolò Magrelli. The label makes experimental knitwear such as sweaters, cardigans, knitted tops, dresses, skirts and trousers, released in seasonal collections. Everything is made in Italy. Boboutic combines traditional knit-and-stitch techniques with constant research into new materials and production methods. Its designers treat yarn as an endless line, ideally keeping it intact by refusing to cut garments with scissors, and use the versatility of knit to create unique surfaces and unexpected shapes. Boboutic has presented its collections during Paris Fashion Week since 2001. Each collection is also developed with artists from visual art, performance and film, including Fanny & Alexander, Kinkaleri, Marco Mazzoni, Jacopo Miliani, Davide Savorani and the Zapruder filmmakersgroup, who create original artworks linked to the collection's theme.
