ABOUT US
OUR BRAND, OUR HISTORY
MAISON DRESSAGE was born in Trieste, Italy, from the shared creativity and enthusiasm of two friends. We chose the name as a reference to the equestrian discipline of dressage — a world where elegance, discipline and precision meet strength and instinct.
From the beginning, we wanted to explore the tension between instinct and control, strength and elegance through design, reinterpreting fetish references through a minimalist and architectural lens. The result is a distinctive visual language defined by clean geometries, structure and sensuality. In 2015, we opened our first atelier in the historic center of Trieste.
LA CASERNE, PARIS
In 2025, MAISON DRESSAGE was selected to join La Caserne in Paris — Europe’s largest incubator dedicated to sustainable fashion — based in the heart of the city’s 10th arrondissement.
Being part of this ecosystem allows us to continuously improve our production processes, strengthen our commitment to sustainability, and keep developing our vision through craftsmanship, innovation and contemporary design — proudly MADE IN PARIS
MATERIALS
We carefully source high-quality materials selected for their durability, aesthetic value and lower environmental impact. Our vegetable-tanned leather comes from Tuscany, where traditional tanning methods rely on natural tannins and avoid harmful chemicals.
We also work with raw brass and Italian walnut, materials that arrive in their raw state at our atelier and are transformed into the distinctive details that define our collections.
CRAFTMANSHIP
All materials arrive in their raw state at our atelier, where each component is carefully handcrafted. Leather is cut and finished by hand, Italian walnut is shaped through traditional techniques, and raw brass is refined to create the distinctive hardware that defines our collections, later finished through gold and rhodium plating by expert workshops.
At MAISON DRESSAGE, we oversee every step of the process — from material sourcing to final production — ensuring quality, precision and durability while maintaining a strong commitment to environmental responsibility and ethical craftsmanship.
RESPONSABILITY
MAISON DRESSAGE embraces the principles of slow fashion, creating handcrafted accessories that transcend trends and are designed to last.
To avoid overproduction and unnecessary waste, we primarily work on a made-to-order basis, allowing us to maintain a more intentional and responsible production rhythm. We also use recycled polyester threads and construction techniques that minimize chemical adhesives, helping reduce our environmental impact while supporting ethical craftsmanship.
