Ciao Lucia

Ciao Lucia is a Los Angeles womenswear label founded in June 2017 by Lucy Akin, previously a boutique owner and buyer. Dresses referencing vintage Italian cinema and French New Wave account for roughly 75 percent of sales, while knitwear is the fastest-growing category. Akin has taken no outside investment, and the company has been profitable since its second year. Styles appeared in season three of "The White Lotus," and a summer capsule with Rixo landed in 2024. Stocked by Bergdorf Goodman, Bloomingdale's and Revolve, it opened its first store on Venice's Abbot Kinney Boulevard.
