Italian fashion label The Attico has opened its first standalone boutique in Ibiza.
Located in a newly developed area of the island, the store is the first in a series of concept-driven flagships. A second opening is set for Seoul later this year, with a Milan store also planned.
Founded in 2016 by Gilda Ambrosio and Giorgia Tordini, The Attico started with a focused collection of robe-inspired silhouettes. Nearly a decade later, the brand offers a full lifestyle range including ready-to-wear, swimwear and accessories — all made in Italy, aside from intricate embroidery, which is crafted in India.
Each of the planned stores will be inspired by different rooms of an imagined apartment — an approach that mirrors the brand’s long-standing interplay between fashion and interiors.

The Ibiza store will be a bathroom, complete with a functioning bathtub and vintage vanity details. “Ibiza is our second home,” Tordini said. “This space makes our world tangible for the first time — it’s an extension of our aesthetic and the women we speak to.”
The boutique also signifies a gradual move into direct-to-consumer retail. The Attico currently sells through its own e-commerce site and a wholesale network of over 270 global stockists.
Backed since 2018 by Archive, the investment vehicle funded by Moncler executive Remo Ruffini, The Attico has been quietly building infrastructure, expanding its internal team to 50 people. “We’ve chosen to grow slowly and deliberately,” said Tordini. “We could have sold much more, but we’ve always favoured a scarcity strategy to protect the brand’s long-term value.”
As the brand prepares for its third official runway show this September during Milan Fashion Week, it continues to balance its Italian roots with global aspirations. “The Attico woman is multifaceted — unapologetic, style-driven, with a global outlook,” said Tordini. “This store is a milestone. It’s the first time people can walk into our world, one room at a time.”
