Campomaggi line was born in 1980, from the fashion designer Marco Campomaggi (born on 25/02/1961 in Teodorano), influenced by his sculptor father's creativity. Since his teen years he shows a very good manual skill that, matched with his aesthetic sense and his strongly concrete spirit, led to his early works. During the high-school years he manually manufactured almost for fun, his first models of bags, using saddle leather and metal studds, selling them on the seaside sidewalks and to his school mates. Then, manufacturing bags became his job.
