The story begins in Bogotá, where in the early twentieth century Vincenzo Caccioppoli and his sons opened a shop selling imported cloth. After the First World War the family returned to Naples and, around 1920, opened the shop in Piazza Nicola Amore. It is still there, and still in the family.

Caccioppoli is not a mill but a cloth merchant. It chooses fabrics from Italian mills and a few British ones and brings them together in a collection of unmistakable taste: soft colours, expressive patterns, pleasing handles. Fabrics conceived for the Neapolitan jacket, light and built around movement.
