Ottod'Ame
Ottod'Ame is an Italian label built on casual chic style: tailoring that feels relaxed rather than formal, and pieces designed to be worn together rather than dressed up for a single occasion. At Kiti, we stock a small, considered edit of the brand alongside our wider designer clothing collection.
Expect sharply cut blazers, wide-leg and palazzo trousers, and oversized knitwear in colours that go beyond the expected black and navy. Ottod'Ame pieces are made to layer and mix, which suits the way most of us actually get dressed. As with everything at Kiti, once a piece sells out it isn't reordered, so what you see is what's here.
Ottod'Ame at Kiti
Ottod'Ame is an Italian label designed in Florence by Silvia Mazzoli, whose team built the brand around the idea of eight women, each bringing a different point of view to the collection. That shows in the clothes. Nothing is designed to be worn one way only. A blazer might be sharp enough for a meeting and easy enough for the weekend, and the trousers are cut to move rather than sit stiffly. It's what people mean when they call it casual chic: proper Italian tailoring without the formality.
Blazers and jackets
The starting point of most Ottod'Ame edits is the blazer. Single-breasted, well structured through the shoulder, and cut in fabrics with enough weight to hold their shape over a t-shirt or a fine knit. Kiti's current edit includes a black tailored blazer and a silver single-breasted style, both built to be the thing you reach for when nothing else feels finished.
Trousers and palazzo silhouettes
Ottod'Ame trousers lean wide rather than skinny. Palazzo cuts in fluid fabrics sit well with the blazers and give the whole look its ease, and the tailored black trouser does the same job in a more compact shape. Both are designed to be worn with flat shoes as readily as heels, which is part of why the brand reads as effortless rather than dressed up. Browse the full range in our trousers collection.
Knitwear
Oversized knitwear is where Ottod'Ame's colour sense comes through most clearly. Rose and berry tones sit alongside the more expected neutrals, and the fit is deliberately generous, built to be pulled over a shirt or worn on its own with the sleeves pushed up. It's the kind of piece that earns its place through wear rather than trend.
Made in Italy, bought in small batches
Every Ottod'Ame piece is designed and produced in Italy, with the kind of attention to fabric and cut that Tuscan manufacturing is known for. At Kiti, we buy in small batches rather than committing to a full run of every style, so the edit you see reflects what we've chosen for this season rather than a permanent catalogue. Once a piece sells out, it isn't reordered. If something catches your eye, it's worth not waiting too long to decide. You'll find Ottod'Ame alongside the rest of our designer clothing at Kiti, our independent boutique in Cardiff.
