Ever since we started Nosetta, our mission has been simple: create beautiful handbags using the finest materials from Lake Como, Italy, while keeping sustainability and ethical practices at the heart of everything we do. But guess what? Our dedication to responsible fashion just got some major recognition!
We're thrilled to announce that Nosetta has been chosen as a case study for the prestigious NYU Stern School of Business's Next Gen Fashion course! This incredible honor allows us to share our story with future fashion leaders and inspire them to build businesses that are both stylish and sustainable.
Professor Thomai Serdari, who leads the Next Gen Fashion course, explained that Nosetta was selected because we showcase how a fashion brand can be successful while prioritizing social and environmental responsibility. Apparently, our commitment to transparency, ethical sourcing, and local craftsmanship resonated with the program!
Our co-founder, Marco Porcellana, had the amazing opportunity to visit NYU Stern in February to present Nosetta to the students. He shared our story, our values, and the challenges and rewards of operating in the fashion industry today. In May, Marco even got to evaluate the final projects these talented students created based on the Nosetta case study.
Being featured as a case study at NYU Stern is a huge validation of everything we stand for at Nosetta. It proves that even a small brand like ours can make an impact by staying true to our principles. This experience also motivates us to keep pushing boundaries and creating high-quality handbags that are not only beautiful but also kind to the planet and the people who make them.
The student's final projects, informed by Nosetta's story, offered valuable insights. Many proposals highlighted the potential of experiential marketing strategies, allowing customers to connect with the brand's heritage and craftsmanship on a deeper level. This could involve exclusive behind-the-scenes tours of Nosetta's workshops or collaborations with local artisans for bespoke customization options. The students also recognized the power of leveraging insider information, such as the unique qualities of the Lake Como region's materials, to create a more compelling brand narrative.
We're incredibly grateful to NYU Stern for this incredible opportunity. We're excited to continue crafting stunning handbags from Lake Como's finest fabrics while staying committed to responsible fashion practices. At Nosetta, we believe that luxury and sustainability can go hand-in-hand, and we're here to prove it!

Certain places on Lake Como hold their secrets close. Villa La Cassinella, perched on a private peninsula near Lenno, is among the most discreet. As for its owner, speculation ranges from Richard Branson to various other names, though the villa itself maintains studied silence. Chef Alessia cooked here this summer, and she's sharing a holiday risotto recipe from those months—one that traces her journey from Como to Copenhagen's Michelin kitchens and back home.
Nestled in the historic villa of 19th-century opera legend Giuditta Pasta, Mandarin Oriental Lago di Como represents the pinnacle of Italian hospitality. The resort's breathtaking 40-meter infinity pool, designed by Herzog & De Meuron, appears to merge seamlessly with Lake Como's emerald waters. Century-old botanical gardens, Michelin-starred dining at L'ARIA, and an award-winning spa create an atmosphere of timeless elegance. In this sanctuary of authentic luxury, Nosetta's handcrafted Italian accessories find their natural home—understated pieces that complement the resort's philosophy of refined sophistication.
The small tote bag has become an essential accessory in the fashion world. Combining functionality and style, this compact bag offers enough space for an iPad, phone, and wallet without sacrificing elegance. Prestigious brands like Goyard and Marc Jacobs have elevated this accessory to a luxury icon, while Nosetta offers artisanal versions inspired by Lake Como at accessible prices. Made with high-quality materials, the small tote represents the perfect choice for those seeking a practical, elegant, and sustainable bag for everyday life.
