Florentina drew early inspiration from assisting her father in his ateliers located in Nicosia, Cyprus and Athens, Greece. Upon his untimely passing, Florentina recognized she had inherited a natural creative gift for design. With fashion deeply ingrained in her DNA, it became her artistic medium of choice.

From a young age, Florentina traveled extensively throughout Europe, the Middle East, United States, and Asia. She found motivation in observing confident, jet-setting women who boldly expressed their individual styles and were not afraid to make bold fashion statements. Art also played a formative role in Florentina's development, as she cultivated her skills in painting and sketching to transform her ideas into wearable works of art.

Florentina launched her brand by creating bespoke Couture pieces for a global clientele. Operating from studios in Sydney, Australia with frequent travels to Dubai and Europe, her boundary-pushing designs exuded confidence and timelessness. After nearly a decade of success in Couture, Florentina envisioned broadening her reach through ready-to-wear collections tailored for the modern, global woman. 

The Florentina brand mission is to spark self-assurance and empower women to step boldly into the spotlight through her designs, leave their unique marks on the world, and achieve lasting renown.
