GIOVANNI
PICCIOTTI
ONE OF ONE.
NEVER AGAIN.
“If I can make another one, it isn’t art.”
Giovanni Picciotti does not customize footwear.He reinterprets it.
Giovanni transforms familiar objects into one-of-one luxury pieces through hand distressing, painting, sculptural hardware, textiles, jewellery and obsessive craftsmanship.
Every piece is individually conceived and finished inside the Picciotti atelier.

NOT FASHION.
IDENTITY.
Giovanni works between worlds.
Italian craftsmanship and street culture.
Precious materials and damaged surfaces.
Classical symbolism and modern rebellion.
Perfection and destruction.
The goal isn’t to make something beautiful.
The goal is to make something unmistakable.

GIOVANNI
PICCIOTTI
Italian designer. Artist. Craftsman. Provocateur.
Giovanni grew up surrounded by Italian art, architecture, tailoring and craftsmanship before becoming obsessed with the collision between luxury fashion and street culture.
He approaches every object as something that can be destroyed, reconstructed and elevated.
His work is intentionally limited. There is no traditional seasonal collection. There are commissions. There are experiments. There are accidents. There are pieces that will never exist again.
“Luxury is not the price.
Luxury is knowing nobody else has one.”
— GIOVANNI PICCIOTTI
