DONDUP

Dondup comes from Myngar Dondup, a tibetan lama whose philosophical principle was: “all men are equal: race, colour and faith have no meaning, all that counts are one’s intentions and actions”. The brand was created by Massimo Berloni and Manuela Mariotti in 1999.

Dondup starts within Arcadia company in Fossombrone, tucked away in the green hills of the Marches, a place called “the denim valley” for its old tradition in jeans manufacturing. Dondup collections are designed and produced here, in a minimalist environment with few dashes of antique, where old and new harmoniously mould together.

Dondup collections start from denim arriving to a total look for woman, man and children. The value of manual skill characteristic of a large part of the Dondup production, together with a modern and original spirit, represent the peculiarity aspects of the made in Italy: the testing of new materials, original tailoring, manufacturing and a relentless search for innovation.
