ANTONINA POPPY was established in 2018 by Antonina Maria Pawlowicz. Based in Florence, the house brings together Italian design and craftsmanship with modern technology. Each collection is produced in limited numbers and made by hand, with a focus on quality, precision and enduring simplicity. The brand’s approach combines elements of haute couture with effortless wear, using only the finest materials to create pieces designed to last.
