VISCONTI & DU RÉAU

Two young women, Patricia du Réau and Marina Visconti di Massino, decided to make a change in their career and launched their own business. They joined forces to develop a passion they have in common with many other women: shoes. Not just any shoes though, a collection of chic, light sandals, with high quality materials, a contemporary design and trendy colours.

As an adolescent she then returned to Paris, where she studied communication and journalism at the EFAP. Patricia started her career as a PR for te levision channel M6, and after three years, left Paris for Florence where she was the Events Organiser a luxury sportif car brand. After four years, Patricia decided to move on and launch her own business with Marina: to produce a line of shoes, all Made in Italy!

Marina Visconti, is an artistic mind.
