BLOG#1: Nicoletta Valentina, the story
From reselling clothes to designing unique and innovative garments
Perhaps you already suspected it, but Nicoletta Valentina is not just a clothing brand, but the name of the person responsible for creating those garments that make you feel unique and special at any time.
Do you know the Nicoletta Valentina's storyHiding dresses, reselling clothes, creating a garment without a zipper or seams, and of course, a lot of studying, are part of the milestones that have shaped who we are today.
Colorful dresses, with plunging necklines and daring designs were the garments that her mother imported from the United States, something uncommon in Chile at the time, and yet, the adoration of little Nicoletta Valentina.
At just eight years old, she would try on these clothes at night while her mother slept and, since once wasn't enough, she would hide them under the bed to model them whenever she wanted. She managed to hide more than 20 dresses without her mom noticing!
This passion for fashion led her to study in 2005 at the prestigious Accademia Costume &Fashion in Italy. But, the work of a designer still had to wait, so she decided to take her first steps with a small boutique in Barrio Italia reselling clothes imported from Brazil.
Everything changed overnight when Nicoletta could no longer afford the rent for her shop and decided to unleash her creativity and skills to create her own clothing line. A sewing machine and her determination were all she needed to create her first dress, 100% Nicoletta Valentina.
The secret?: It had no zippers, buttons or seams, but it still caused a sensation among those who would become its future customers.
This dress was the key piece that allowed her to unleash her dreams and never resell again, because from now on Nicoletta Valentina was a 100% original and own design brand.
After her initial success and in her constant pursuit of improvement, she went to Canada to specialize in Couture Rouge à Lèvre to achieve a better service. Since then, Nicoletta Valentina's story has had its ups and downs, but she has always persevered.
“Perhaps I won’t become like Chanel, Dior, or Hermes, but my job is to try. I’ll give it my all, because they were flesh and blood like everyone else; the difference is that they believed in themselves. I’m Nicoletta Valentina, and I want to be, or at least try to be, the best at what I do.”
Our dream is to dress all women. Those who want to feel sexy, those who want to look elegant, those who want to look beautiful for a special occasion, but above all, we want to dress women who want to stand out and feel confident at any time.
This is Nicoletta Valentina!

Fue en 2021 cuando adquirí mi primera prenda de Nicoletta Valentina. En ese momento, me encontraba en plena búsqueda de un estilo que pudiera reflejar con sutileza el proceso personal que estaba viviendo: un camino hacia la madurez, la autenticidad y la seguridad que deseaba proyectar. Desde entonces, cada diseño adquirido ha resonado profundamente conmigo. No solo me he sentido representada, sino también acompañada, como si cada prenda hubiese sido pensada para abrazar cada etapa de mi evolución. Muchas gracias!

Me parece lo mejor del mundo Nicoletta Valentina , la conozco desde barrio italia cuando vendia cosas que no eran creadas directo por ella, ame su atención.
Ahora que tiene su marca 100% original sigo comprando todo y lo que mas amo de toda su familia es la humildad máxima que tienen que a pesar de todo lo que a logrado jamás se olvida de donde comenzo , amo su marca realmente las prendas generan ese ¡guau! cuando la gente me ve con algo de Nicoletta .

Me parece increíble la historia de Nicoletta, sin dudas no ha sido fácil, pero admiro la fortaleza que ha tenido siempre, de que
“sus sueños, dejen de ser sueños”, porque hoy SE HAN CONVERTIDO EN REALES, muchas amamos sus diseños y tenemos varias hermosuras en nuestro Closet.
Así que Nico felicito a todo tu equipo que cada día se esmera y hace que con cada nuevo diseño NOS SINTAMOS ÚNICAS💜 un abrazo desde Iquique.
