Founded in 2019 by Italian-American designer and Royal Academy of Antwerp graduate Jezabelle Cormio, Cormio is a Milan-based brand that reinterprets Tyrolean tradition with a subversive, contemporary edge. The label is distinguished by its focus on knitwear, which constitutes the majority of its collections, blending folkloric Austrian aesthetics with the playful irony of Italian bourgeois culture. Cormio’s signature is a “cute-sexy-intellectual” style, seen in hand-embroidered sweaters, puff-shouldered cardigans, and tailored pieces that are both nostalgic and irreverent. The designs often feature a palette of soft pastels punctuated by bold, primary colors, and incorporate kitsch motifs and provocative slogans that challenge traditional femininity.
