Dolce Vita

Dolce Vita began as a dream drafted on a cocktail napkin. Founded in 2001 on New York City's Lower East Side, the brand's name is an homage to our founders' favorite bar from their days studying in Italy.

After studying shoe design at Arsutoria in Milan, Italy, Lucio officially joined forces with Lamprou to create the brand that would become Dolce Vita, from an idea dreamed up after-hours in a favorite bar.

Dolce Vita was acquired by Steve Madden on Aug 18, 2014
