Collection Privée

Created in 1988 as a shoe line to which was added, in 1996, a clothing Collection. Its designer is Massimo Bizzi, from Bologna, who, after working at Mishap, his family’s shoe and clothing company, decided to start Robiz, a line and business of his own. His first shoe Collection was made up of sandals and loafers made with very refined leathers and in new colors, such as matt blacks and very light sand tones. Starting in the mid 1990s, he offered three Collections, for men, women, and children, with a total of 45,000 pairs of shoes produced each year. In 1996 he started a clothing line including high-tech garments and sportswear: windbreakers, safari jackets, and long dustcoats in resinated lien and oiled cotton. Since 1992 there has been a Collection Privée showroom in Milan, on via Monte di Pietà.
