Scappino (fashion house)

Scappino (Italian pronunciation: [skapˈpiːno]) is an Italian luxury fashion house created in 1914 by Domenico Scappino in Turin, Italy,[1] specializing in silk products like ready-to-wear ties, shoes, watches, jewellery, accessories, sunglasses, and fragrances.

Within few years the brand started getting recognized in Europe, eventually opening boutiques across the continent.

During the 1930s, the Prince of Piedmont, Umberto II, designated Scappino as the official supplier of the Royal House.

[1] The company later expanded operations in Latin America, opening boutiques in Mexico and Argentina.

Because it was not involved in the war, Mexico continued to demand the company's products, as interest in the country spread.
