In 1954 Ada Masotti, an italian woman full of talent and courage, began the journey towards her dream: creating an atelier of corsetry in the name of the best Italian tradition.

Beginning in a small laboratory in Bologna, the Italian town renowned for its solid tradition of silk factories and textile manufacturers. Ada used her talent as a skilled corset maker to create works of art enhancing feminine beauty. Femininity in the purest state. Dream, emotion, perfection. La Perla continued to shape every woman’s desires and interprets its collections with a creative sensitivity at the highest level of elegance and style.
